The developing chick in the egg gets its food from the yolk, which contains all the nutrients necessary for its growth. Once the yolk is used up, the chick will absorb the remaining nutrients through the blood vessels in the yolk sac. Once the nutrients are depleted, the chick will hatch from the egg, at which point it will need to start receiving food externally.

Its the nutrients and vitamins needed for the chick to grow from embryo to chick, but when fertilization has not taken place it is simply added flavor to an amazing omelette!answ2. Albumin is the name for the white of the egg. The yolk contains most of what the growing chick needs for nutrients, and the white provides some extra food and liquid.

What you see when you crack open an egg is Yolk and albumen, the white and the yellow. This is actually the food for the developing chick when the egg is fertilized and incubated. The chick uses this food for the 21 days it takes to develop. It gets nutrients from the yolk. If you have ever studied the development of an egg you will see what happens. I have seen chicks born out of an incubator with the yolk still attached to their bodies....
