The ovum that is released at ovulation enters the fallopian tube (oviduct). If it were to be fertilized, it will then start dividing, forming an embryo which will eventually enter the uterus.

Is many sperm feritize one egg?
No, typically only one sperm fertilizes one egg during sexual reproduction in humans. However, in rare cases, multiple sperm can fertilize the same egg, resulting in a condition called polyspermy, which often leads to developmental abnormalities and is not viable for long-term survival.
Do female dischagre sperms?
On average Femaled discharge one ovum.
How does fertilization takes places?
By the fusion of egg with sperm.
Why does meiosis produce four sperm cells but only on ovum?
Meiosis produces four polar bodies in females of which, in humans, three dissolve away and one becomes the ovum. The ovum is the one that gets most of the cytoplasm, nutrients and organelles, the other polar bodies get very little of each. This is due to efficient resource allocation and energy conservation. The ovum is the one fertilized and goes on in development. The sperm are cheap to make and many are made.
Can drink girls ovum's then what happen?
Do you mean, what would happen if you ingested ovum's orally? It's a strange thing to ask, but an ova is just one egg cell. If you ate one, or even many, nothing would happen to you; it would die in your digestive tract, or sooner.
What if more than one sperm cell enter the egg what is the result?
When multiple sperm cells enter the ovum there are several possibilities that could happen depending on the later actions of the ovum. Essentially the ovum will divide into twins that could be identical, symetrical or neither.
When an ovum is released it enters one of the fallopian tubes which lead from the ovaries to the?
uterus
Why do humans usually produce only one baby at a time?
Because in females usually only one ovum ripens at a time and released , so only one ovum is fertilised giving one baby .
Why only one sperm cell can fertilized an ovum?
Ovum has a layer of zona pellucida around itself. When a sperm enters the ovum, the cortical granules present in the ovum, causes the thickening of the zona pellucida. This prevents the entry of other sperms in the ovum and only one sperm is able to fertilize the egg.
What are the chances of pregnancy off of a drop of sperm?
Sperm contains 60 to 120 million/ ml of Spermatozoa. 16 drops makes a ml and still you have millions of sperms in a drop of sperm and only one of them fertilizes the ovum.(Though number of others, trying to enter the ovum, indirectly help the one, by liberating various enzymes, witch they liberate in attempt to penetrate the ovum.) So a drop is more than sufficient !
How many ovum are released each month?
One for most women. Those who are on fertility drugs & those who have Fraternal (not identical) twins are the exception.
Is many sperm feritize one egg?

How does the egg move to the fallopian tube when it is dischrge by the ovary?
The egg released by the ovary is moved by the fimbriae into the fallopian tube. Once fertilized, the egg travels to the uterus for implantation.
Is menstruation the process of releasing a mature ovum into the uterine tube each month?
One egg cell is released each month.
In internal fertilisation how many sperm cells and egg cells are wasted?
50 million sperm are discharged during just one ejaculation in a normal healthy male normally there is only one ovum released in the woman so in this case if the ovum is fertilised no egg cells are wasted and 49,999,999 sperm are wasted.
How many ova are released during menstruation?
Generally only one ovum per month. It is possible for each ovary to produce one or more at the same time, this is how fraternal twins are possible.
What is the size and function of the ovaries?
the ovaries' function is to hold the ova (eggs) until the time of ovulation when one ovum is released into the fallopian tube where it may or may not be fertilized.
