False about primary follicle
A)cumulus oophorus is present
B)zona pellucida is present
C)theca folliculk is present
A)cumulus oophorus is present
Cumulus oophorus is present starting secondary follicle.
What separates the theca folliculi from zona pellucida?
membrane limitans externa
In the secondary follicle, where is the secondary oocyte located?
Cumulus oophorus
In the secondary oocyte, what is the location of liquor folliculi (a transudate of blood plasma, but contains much higher concentration of steroids and gonadotrophic hormones)?
Antrum
What part of the secondary oocyte has the following:
A)layer of closely adherent cuboidal granulosa cells immediately surrounding the zona pellucida (ZP)
B)slender processes of its cells traverse the ZP and contact the ZP
Corona radiata
Layer of cells synthesize androgenic steroids that diffuse into the follicle and are converted into estradiol by the granulosa cells
Theca interna
True or false: Theca externa is absent in secondary follicle
False.present siya :)
