secretions of accesory ducts imp for
maturtion and motility both
oogonia arrested in
prophase 1
temporarily arrested oogonia c/a?
primary oocyte
change in primary oocyte?
layer of granulosa cells come and this is c/a primary follicle
follicles left at puberty?
60,000-80,000 in each ovary
change in primary follicle?
new granulosa cells and new THECA now c/a secondary follicle
theca in tertiary follicle is organised into?
