Ovarian follicles cells produce estrogen, which is a steroid. What organelle will be present in abundance so that the follicles
zloy xaker [14]

The steroids are produced by the Smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

The cells, which are involved in the secretion of the steroid molecules have an abundant number of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, which is abbrevated as SER.

The cells present in the ovary and the testis have a large number of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The abundant number of smoothe endoplasmic reticulum allow them to produce a large amount of steroid molecule to produce the steroid hormones estrogen and testosterone.

Hence, in this case, the ovarian cells would have a large number of SER.
