The purpose of the yolk in a chicken egg is to feed the chick. It is a store house of nutrients and is rich in protein and fat.That is why the yolk is said to be the unhealthy part of the egg in terms of high cholesterol content for calorie and fat conscious people.
The yolk is the yellow bit in the middle of an egg. It contains nutrients for the growing chick.
i think its the foetus chick! my fave part of the egg!
The egg yolk isn't the actual chick, it's food for the chick in it's embryo stage. So.......just food, i guess.

To eat and to become a baby.
Chalaza are the rope-like extensions that hold a yolk centered in the egg shell. It attaches to either end of the shell and acts like an anchor to the yolk.
the yolk! yolk
The chalaza in an egg is a rope-like, white "thing" that you might find in a scrambled or fried egg. If you look carefully, you can see it in a raw egg. What is does is it stabilizes or suspends the yolk, so that in a fresh egg the yolk floats in the middle of the albumin (egg white). When candling an egg, one thing you look for is that the yolk of an older egg will be near the shell and definitely visible. In a freshly laid egg, the you see a "shadow" of the yolk, and as you twirl the egg, the chalaza keeps the yolk in the center and away from the shell.
Egg yolk contains more sulfur than albumin
The yellow part of an egg is called the 'yolk' and its purpose is to feed the developing embryo (chick).

the yolk of the egg is yellow

Strong protein strands called chalaza are attached to both sides of the yolk. Chalaza holds the yolk centered within the albumen (egg white).
the egg yolk
The small white bit next to the yolk of an egg is call chalaza. This is a strand of heavy protein that helps to keep the yolk centered in the albumen (white/clear part of an egg). This chalaza disappears as the egg get older and is more visible when you buy very fresh eggs.
Yolk is the yellow nucleus in the middle of the egg.
Egg yolk is thicker than egg white.
