We have seen that ovogenesis continues during preg- nancy. Engle's data dem- onstrate that the formation ^. 30 and atresia of full-grown ^^ ova also occurs during preg nancy, for he observed an t.§ appreciable number of c^gio pseudomaturation spindles in ovaries taken during the first 43/2 days of pregnancy. These data are summarized in Table VI and Figure 14. It is notable that both the total amount of atresia and the atresia of mature ova is ATRETIC FOLLICLES.
