Abstract
OVARIES of the mouse were centrifuged in the Beams ultra-centrifuge. In the young oocytes the cytoplasmic inclusions and components are stratified into three layers. The mitochondria occupy the centrifugal end of the cell. The Golgi material and the nucleus, together with a few small granular mitochondria, are situated in the middle region of the cell, while the centripetal end is filled with clear cytoplasm which may contain a few small Golgi elements.
