Graafian follicles are mature ovarian follicles that are capable of ovulating an egg. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - A) Oogenesis - B) Luteinization - C) Folliculogenesis 3. **Defining Each Term**: - **Oogenesis**: This is the process of formation and development of the ovum (egg) in the female reproductive system. It does not specifically refer to the formation of follicles. - **Luteinization**: This is the process that occurs after ovulation, where the remnants of the Graafian follicle transform into the corpus luteum. This is not related to the formation of the follicles themselves. - **Folliculogenesis**: This is the process by which primordial follicles develop into mature Graafian follicles. It encompasses the growth and maturation of the follicles. 4. **Choosing the Correct Answer**: Based on the definitions, the correct answer is **Folliculogenesis**.
