Yes it is true, oogenesis occurs to help further the maturation of the follicle and possibly fetus.

Two types of meiosis that are carried on by humans?
Spermatogenesis and oogenesis are two types of meiosis that are carried out by humans. This is the activity of the human body producing sperm and egg cells for reproduction.
What is called the process of formation of gametes?
the formation of sex cells GAMETES: sperm or egg cells Gamete formation: gametogenesis Sperm formation: spermatogenesis Egg formation: oogenesis
Two examples of gametogenesis?
Gametogenesis is defined as the production of gametes, or sex cells. The two examples would be spermatogenesis (production of sperm in males) and oogenesis (production of eggs in females.)
Does oogenesis involve meiosis?
Yes, both oogenesis (egg production) and spermatogenesis (sperm production) utilize meiosis to produce haploid gametes, or gametes with half the normal amount of genetic material.
Do reproductive cells produce sex cells?
by meiosis. for sperm it is called spermatogenesis while for eggs it is called oogenesis.
What happens when egg and sperm are formed in meiosis?
That would be called pregenant in most languages.
What process results in the formation of a egg?
In humans?,, A female human is borned with all the eggs she will ever have.
What is the process by which ova are formed?
the process of ava formaton in female s called oogenesis, and sperm formation is called spermatogenesis.
What is the difference between spermatogenesis and oogenesis?
Spermatogenesis takes place in the testes of males, oogenesis takes place in the ovary of the females.Spermatogenesis produces small, motile spermatozoa whereas in oogenesis the ovum is spherical, not motile and is much larger with more food reserves and cytoplasm.Spermatogenesis involves a metamorphosis stage called spermiogenesis, in oogenesis there is no metamorphosis stage.In spermatogenesis, 4 gametes are produced from each meiotic division, whereas in oogenesis there is only 1 gamete produced from each division as the unequal cytokinesis leads to the formation of polar bodies.Spermatogenesis occurs in males (human males) continuously from puberty to death whereas oogenesis starts in females in the fetal period. It takes 70 days for sperm to be produced in males.In oogenesis, the development of the oocyte is arrested at prophase I of meiosis until puberty, and then stops at metaphase II of meiosis until fertilization, where the meiotic division is finally completed. In males meiosis occurs continuouslyThe hormones in the 2 processes have different effects - in oogenesis, FSH is responsible for the choice of the primary oocyte and causes the cells of the membrana granulosa to proliferate to form the theca interna which secretes oestrogen, and the theca externa. LH in females stimulates ovulation and the maturation of the Graafian follicle. In males, on the other hand, FSH increases the activity of the Sertoli cells which are involved in spermiogenesis (the metamorphosis stage of spermatogenesis). LH in males stimulates the Leydig cells to secrete testosterone.
How do you get sperm to come out?
Stimulation of the penis is needed through masturbation or sexual intercourse.
How do get sperm to come out?
Stimulation of the penis is needed through masturbation or sexual intercourse.
What is process of forming male gametes called?
It is still called meiosis, except that instead of an egg you end up with a sperm cell.
