The Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) is a model used to explain the behavior of matter. It is based on a series of postulates. Some of the postulates of KMT are as follows: 1  Matter is made of particles that are constantly in motion. 2  This energy in motion is called kinetic energy.
An ovarian cyst is a sac filled with liquid or semiliquid material that arises in an ovary. The number of diagnoses of ovarian cysts has increased with the widespread implementation of regular physical examinations and ultrasonographic technology.
During the process of ovulation, a cyst-like structure called a follicle is formed inside the ovary. The mature follicle ruptures when an egg is released during ovulation. A corpus luteum forms from the empty follicle and, if pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum dissolves. Sometimes, however, this process does not conclude appropriately, causing the most common type of ovarian cyst: functional ovarian cysts.
