• B. Corpus luteum
• C. Corpus albicans
• D. Theca externa, theca interna, oocyte and follicle cells

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Theca externa, theca interna, oocyte and follicle cells

In rabbit, the oocyte forms several layers of follicle cells. The stroma of the ovary is surrounded by the follicular epithelium which develops into a connective tissue layer (called theca), which is differentiated into a glandular and estrogen-synthesizing layer called theca interna and the external layer called theca externa. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
