Ovarian follicle. Light micrograph of a section through tissue from an ovary,showing a tertiary follicle during the antrum phase. The ovary is the reproductive structure that produces the female sex cells (ova). Tertiary follicles are a late (nearly mature) stage of follicular development,part of a process called folliculogenesis that parallels the development of the female sex cells,resulting in ovulation and the release of an ovum from the mature follicle.
