What is contained in each ovarian follicle?
various follicles one can find inside a typical ovary are primordial/primary/secondary follicles, mature vesicular, rupturing, mature-corpus luteum as well as corpus albicans
Is the inside of the ovary made up of one continuous cavity or is it divided into several chambers?
The inside of the ovary is not made up of one continuous cavity; rather, it is divided into several chambers known as follicles. Each follicle contains an immature egg (oocyte) and is surrounded by supportive cells. As the follicles develop, they go through various stages, ultimately leading to ovulation. The structure of the ovary allows for the maturation and release of multiple eggs over time.
Produced by primary follicles in the ovary?
Estrogen
Are all ovarian follicles at the same stage of development?
No, ovarian follicles are at different stages of development within the ovary. They go through various stages such as primordial, primary, secondary, and Graafian follicles. This allows for a continuous supply of eggs for ovulation.
What are the openings in the ovary that burst to release an egg?
Follicles
When you have polycystic ovary syndrome does that mean you have large ovaries?
No, it means that instead egg follicles properly developing, they begin turning into cysts inside of the ovaries.
Specialized structure in the ovary that contain oocyte?
Ovarian follicles
Where can you find the follicles which carry the egg cells or ova?
On the ovary.
Where is graffian follicles found?
Graafian follicles are found in the ovaries of the female reproductive system. They are structures within the ovary where the maturation of the egg (ovum) takes place before ovulation.
What do you mean by peripherally arranged follicles?
Peripherally arranged follicles refer to the arrangement of ovarian follicles in which they are located at the outer edge or periphery of the ovarian structure. This configuration is typical in the early stages of follicular development, where multiple follicles are positioned around the outer layer of the ovary. This arrangement plays a crucial role in the process of oogenesis and the overall function of the ovaries in reproductive biology.
What hormone is produced by primary follicles in the ovary?
oestrogen and progesterone
In the ovary eggs mature in a group of cells known as what?
ovum
