Solution

The correct option is B Graafian follicle
During luteal phase or during ovulation, the ovum is propelled through the fallopian tube into the uterus. Meanwhile, under the influence of leutinizing hormone (LH) surge, the remaining, ruptured follicle (Graafian follicle) is transformed into a glandular structure, called as corpus luteum.
Thus, the correct answer is (C), 'Graafian follicle'.
