1 answer

A polar body is a tiny cell that forms during oogenesis (egg development) in females. It is produced during the first stage of meiosis (not mitosis) after fertilization occurs. A polar body contains a nucleus and a small amount of cytoplasm but is devoid of organelles. It is eventually discarded and does not contribute to the development of the embryo.

A primordial follicle refers to a stage of ovarian follicle development where a single oocyte (immature egg) is surrounded by a layer of supporting cells.

A tertiary follicle is also known as a mature or Graafian follicle. It is the final stage of follicle development before ovulation, characterized by a fluid-filled cavity called the antrum and a fully developed oocyte.

The area of the cell where mitotic spindles form during metaphase is called the spindle apparatus. It is responsible for separating chromosomes during cell division. However, it is not directly related to polar bodies or follicle development.
