Biology
ScanSolve AI Answer
A primordial follicle is the earliest stage of a follicle in the ovary. It consists of an oocyte (immature egg cell) surrounded by a single layer of flattened cells called granulosa cells. These are the resting follicles present from birth.
A dominant follicle is the follicle that is selected during the menstrual cycle to mature fully and release an egg (ovulation). It is typically the largest and fastest-growing follicle in the cohort that begins to develop each cycle.
