हिन्दीConsider the following statements regarding the human ovary: Statement I: Each ovary is about \( 2\text{ to }4\text{ cm} \) in length and is connected to the pelvic wall and uterus by ligaments. Statement II: Each ovary is covered by a thick tunica albuginea which encloses the stroma divided into an outer medulla and inner cortex. Choose the correct option:
Correct answer · Option 2
Statement I is correct, but Statement II is incorrect
Explanation
Statement I is correct. Statement II is incorrect because each ovary is covered by a thin epithelium (not a thick layer) which encloses the ovarian stroma, and the stroma is divided into a peripheral (outer) cortex and an inner medulla (not vice versa).
