What's the difference between germarium and ovary?
Germarium
Definition:
(n.) An organ in which the ova are developed in certain Turbellaria.
Example Sentences:

(12) In the fifth instar larva of E. integriceps, two zones may be seen in the germarium of the telotrophic ovariole: the apical trophocyte zone and the distal oocyte zone.

(14) Evaluation of the number of anomalous thoracic macrochaetae in parallel strains of flies after heating of the oocytes during the critical periods of macrochaeta development (seven days before egg laying), i.e., the stage of oocyte formation in the germarium.
(15) The trophocyte nucleoli synthesize RNA still in germarium.
(16) Each primordial nucleus of this germarium develops and then forms an individual plasmic membrane.
(17) The germarium, composed of a germinative zone and a growth zone, is surrounded externally by a layer of accessory cells the function of which is hypothesized in this study.
(18) This nurse cell is formed during differential mitoses in the germarium as one of two prooocytes.
(19) During their migration through the germarium, follicle cells undergo several structural changes and, of these, the most conspicuous one occurs at the level of the nucleolus.
(20) Complete reconstruction of the synaptonemal complex in 12 pachytene (defined here as that stage in which the synaptonemal complex is continuous throughout the bivalents) nuclei from one wild-type germarium has permitted the following observations.
Ovary
Definition:
(n.) That part of the pistil which contains the seed, and in most flowering plants develops into the fruit. See Illust. of Flower.
(n.) The essential female reproductive organ in which the ova are produced. See Illust. of Discophora.
Example Sentences:
(1) Although Jeggo's Chinese hamster ovary cells were more responsive to mAMSA, novo still abrogated mAMSA toxicity in the mutant cells as well as in the parental Chinese hamster ovary cells 2,4-Dinitrophenol acted similarly to novo with respect to mAMSA killing, but neither compound reduced the ATP content of V79 cells.
(2) This study was designed to investigate the localization and cyclic regulation of the mRNA for these two IGFBPs in the porcine ovary, RNA was extracted from whole ovaries morphologically classified as immature, preovulatory, and luteal.
(3) Stimulation of dopamine D2 receptors potentiates Ca2+ ionophore- or ATP-induced arachidonic acid (AA) release in D2 receptor cDNA-transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells [CHO(D2)].
(4) Stable mutants which are between 1.6- and 2.2-fold resistant to the microtubule inhibitor, nocodazole (NocR mutants) have been isolated in Chinese hamster ovary cells after a single-step selection.
(5) Ovarian venous concentrations of these four steroids from the side draining the tumor-bearing ovary were increased in 40 to 80% of the women.
(6) Ovarian aromatase activity, assessed by incubating the homogenised ovaries of treated rats with tritium-labelled androstenedione (0.2 microM) or testosterone (1 microM), indicated that residual enzyme activity was reduced compared with controls.
(7) The normal tissues included the ovary, fallopian tube, uterine endometrium, uterine cervix, and vagina.
(8) To determine where in the cell cycle Chinese hamster ovary cells die following heating in G1, a mild hyperthermia treatment, i.e., 10 or 11.5 min at 45.5 degrees C, resulting in 40-50% cell kill was used.
(9) The clinical and pathological features of a patient with giant cell arteritis of the uterus and ovaries are described.
