Themembrana granulosa is collected round each ovum into a disk-like investmenttermed the discus proligerus (e, Fig. 311), and the remainder of the follicularcavity contains a clear fluid, the liquor folliculi. The earliest rudiment of everyovum consists of a simple cell with soft granular protoplasm unenclosed by a Fig. 312.

The protoplasm of the primordial cellis termed the formative or principal yolk, since it alone undergoes segmentationand development. The nucleus is termed the germinal vesicle (Vesiculagerminativa) (c, Fig. 312 ; v g, Fig. 313), and the nucleolus, the germinal spot(Macula germinativa) (d, Fig. 312 ; tg, Fig. 313). Accor
