ScanSolve AI Answer

Answer

Follicular recruitment is the process by which primordial follicles in the ovary are recruited to begin developing. This process is continuous throughout a woman's reproductive life.

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. The process begins with primordial follicles, which are small and dormant.

  2. Under the influence of hormones, a cohort of these primordial follicles is stimulated to grow and develop into primary follicles.

  3. From this cohort, one or a few follicles are selected to continue developing towards ovulation, while the rest undergo atresia (programmed cell death).
