What else can I help you with?
Does caffeen cause overian cysts?
no.. The normal function of the ovaries is to produce an egg each month. During the process of ovulation, a cyst-like structure called a follicle is formed inside the ovary. The mature follicle ruptures when an egg is released during ovulation. A corpus luteum forms from the empty follicle, and if pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum dissolves. Sometimes, however, this process does not conclude appropriately, causing the most common type of ovarian cyst -- functional ovarian cysts.
What structure releases progesterone to increase the vascularity of the uterine lining?
The corpus luteum, formed from the remnants of the ovarian follicle after ovulation, is the structure that releases progesterone to increase the vascularity of the uterine lining. Progesterone helps prepare the uterus for potential embryo implantation by promoting a rich blood supply to the endometrium.
Which structure of the hair follicle is made of shingle-like layers of cells?
The cuticle is a tightly formed structure made of shingle-like overlapping scales.
How does the corpus luteum affect the menstrual cycle?
The corpus luteum is the area from which the mature egg broke free from the ovary during ovulation. The corpus luteum produces progesterone which is responsible for the uterine lining build-up.
The zona pellucida is formed as the follicle becomes a secondary follicle True or False?
False. The zona pellucida is formed as the primary oocyte within the primordial follicle begins to grow and develop into a secondary follicle.
What is formed following ovulation from the empty follicle due to LH influence?
The empty follicle continues to function as the corpus luteum, or yellow body. It produces hormones that sustain the egg and help prepare the endometrial lining for implantation if it becomes fertilized. Eventuall, it is reabsorbed by the ovary to be reused in the next cycle through a process known as envolution.
What is a lesion formed by a buildup of sebum and keratin in a hair follicle?
Comedo
Sheath formed of both epithelial and connective tissues?
This structure is likely a dermal sheath, which is composed of both the epidermis (epithelial tissue) and the dermis (connective tissue). Dermal sheaths surround some hair follicles and play a role in supporting and nourishing the hair follicle.
Yellow body formed from a broken follicle that fills with cells?
corpus luteum
Where does corpus luteum develop?
The corpus luteum is formed from the ovary. The pituitary gland increases its production of the second hormone, luteinizing hormone (LH). This second hormone allows the mature egg to rupture from the ovary (called ovulation) and enter into the uterine tube. The postovulatory phase has begun. LH also encourages the formation of a "scar" within the ovary. This "scar" is called the corpus luteum, and it produces the hormone progesterone.
What tissue forms the inner lining of a hair follicle?
The inner lining of a hair follicle is formed by the inner root sheath, which is made up of epithelial tissue. This sheath helps to protect and nourish the growing hair shaft as it develops within the follicle.
What is a lesion formed by the buildup of sebum and keratin in the hair follicle known as?
According to the NIH, it is called a comedo.
