Question
Answer
Ovaries derived from ?   * Mesothelium- epithelial lining .....* Mesenchyme-underlying tissue (basically ovary) ....... * Primordial germ cells  
🗑
Teratomas, arising from all 3 germ layers, can occur where ?   * Can form within the gonads or extragonadally due to abnormal migration during weeks 4-6  
🗑
Surface epithelium in males and females ?   * In females, SE proliferates.... * In males, it regresses and tunica albugenia quickly forms  
🗑
Surface epithelium in females turns in to ?   * Cortical cords increase in size and incorporate germ cells.... * Cords break up into clusters with oogonium surrounded by follicular cells (from surface epithelium)= primordial follicle  
🗑
Forms the female genital ducts ?   * paramesonephric ducts by fusing caudally  
🗑
Differentiation of paramesonephric ducts ?   * develops in to most of the repro system & has serous, endometrial, and mucinous aspects....* Why the Ovaries can get they types of tumors in them is bc even though the Para.Duct makes these three types of tissues, they all come from Coelomic epithelium  
🗑
Ovarian follicles ?   * seen in various sizes and stages.... * supported by stroma  
🗑
Primordial follicles ?   * appear in 3rd mth of development..... * Oocyte in close contact with a single layer squamous follicle cells  
🗑
Primary Follicle ?   * go from squamousal to cuboidal in shape.... * zona pellucida appears..... * follicle cells proliferate and give rise to stratified glanulosa cells  
🗑
Theca folliculi ?   * stromal cells surround oocyte with, Theca interna- internal layer, highly vascularized and the Theca externa- outter layer, mainly smooth muscle (estrogen production)  
🗑
Secondary follicle ?   * Granulosa cells increase and develop small fluid-filled cavities ..... * Antrum is created and oocyte continues to grow  
🗑
Graafian follicle ?   * Mature secondary follicle.... * Very large antrum, stratum granulosum appears thinner  
🗑
Corpus luteum ?   * After Ovu., graafian follicular walls fold in & the Thecal & granulosa cells reorganize into lg corpus luteum.....* Duration of the scar is up to preg or not(if preg, creates est.)....*Then, Thecal & granulosa cells reorganize into large corpus albicans  
🗑
Can form cysts ?   * Follicles that do not rupture or quickly seal off after rupturing can form cysts  
🗑
