Follicles attempt maturation. One follicle succeeds to do so, while others degenerate along the course of their growth and become replaced by fibrous tissue and atretic follicles. The one that succeeds to mature enlarges further in size and pushes over the tunica albuginea and accumulates more fluid. This is now called which of the following? Secondary follicles None of the above Mature Graafian follicles Primary follicles
