A follicle basically looks like a small blister, about 3 to 4 mm in size, nestled on the surface of the ovary, containing follicular fluid and a tiny cell the size of a small grain of sand, which is the âoocyteâ, or egg. The egg is to the follicle as a seed is to a fruit. As a result of natural hormone secretion (the body stimulates the ovary with a hormone called follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)), only one follicle is selected for ovulation and the rest are reabsorbed by the ovaries.
Hypoglycemia vs Hyperglycemia. Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia are associated with blood sugar level. Hypoglycemia is a drop and hyperglycemia is a rise of blood sugar level. Excessive insulin causes hypoglycemia while lack of it causes hyperglycemia.
In the following figure, the left panel shows the effects of a 2 min arterial occlusion on blood flow. In this example, blood flow goes to zero during arterial occlusion. When the occlusion is released, blood flow rapidly increases (i.e., hyperemia occurs) that lasts for several minutes.The hyperemia occurs because during the period of occlusion, tissue hypoxia and a build up of vasodilator metabolites (e.g., adenosine) dilate arterioles and decrease vascular resistance.hen the occlusion is released, blood flow rapidly increases (i.e., hyperemia occurs) that lasts for several minutes.
