10 Questions2 MinutesCreated by ExaminingCell12

What type of follicle is this?

Tertiary follicle

Primary follicle

Secondary follicle

Primordial follicle

Which feature is distinctive (differentiates it from other types of follicles) of this type of follicle? (according to Prof. Larry)

Antral cavity

Flat granulosa cells

Multiple granulosa cells

Corona radiata

What statement(s) are correct about the above image

This is a primary follicle because it has flat granulosa cells

This is a primordial follicle because it has it has flat granulosa cells

This is a primordial follicle because it has it has cubodial, single layer of granulosa cells

These cells are activated (in the follicular wave)

These cells are resting

Which feature(s) are present in this type of follicle

Which options are correct about the image above?

The image is a primordial follicle as it has cubodial granulosa cells

The image is a primary follicle as it has cubodial granulosa cells

Above image contains zona pellucida

This is a primary follicle, which is resting and not activated into the follicular wave

It has been recruited into the follicular wave

The image is a primary follicle as it has flattened granulosa cells

Which cell(s) from the above image produce androgen

Theca externa cells

Theca interna cells

Granulosa cells

Oocyte

Select the correct options regarding function of cells

The zona pellucida in humans is calcified

Granulosa cells produce adrogen, which will aromatise the estrogen produced by thecal cells

Androgen from the thecal cells will move in to granulosa cells to aromatise estrogens

The mural granulosa cells produce luteal cells

The cumulus cells will form the copus luteum

Oocytes are mitotically active

If the Zona pellucida occurs to be "munted", what process is the cells undergoing?

Atresia as it is the dominant follicle

Hormone production

Proliferation

Atresia as it is the non-dominant follicle

Which statements are true about the image above?

The lumen is lined with granulosa cells

The lumen is lined with endothelial cells

The main function of this cell is to carry blood

The main funtion of this cell is to produce estrogen
