New cards

Primordial follicle - description

  • Present at birth

  • Arrested state in meiosis

  • Contains a primary oocyte

11
New cards

Primary follicle - description

  • Produce at puberty

  • Contains a primary oocyte

  • Contains 1 layer of follicular (granulosa cells)

  • Starts producing estrogen

12
New cards

Secondary follicle - description

  • Develops from a primary follicle starting in puberty

  • Contains a primary oocyte

  • Surrounded by several layers of granulosa cells

  • Produces estrogen

13
New cards

Antral follicle - description

  • Develops from a secondary follicle

  • Contains a primary oocyte

  • Antrum forms

  • Produces estrogen

14
New cards

Mature follicle - description

  • Develops from antral follicle

  • Contains a secondary oocyte

15
New cards

Ovulated secondary oocyte - description

  • Released from mature follicle through ovulation

  • Swept towards infundibulum

16
New cards

Corpus luteum - description

  • Follicular cells from mature follicle remaining in the ovary after a secondary oocyte is released

  • Produces progesterone

17
New cards

Corpus albicans - description

  • Scar tissue that develops in the ovary when the corpus luteum stops producing progestroneprogesterone

  • Degenerates
