in the female's ovary
The baby will have a combination of characteristics from both the egg cell and the body cell. The egg cell contributes half of the genetic material (23 chromosomes) and the body cell contributes the other half (23 chromosomes) to form a complete set (46 chromosomes) in the baby.
The egg is the largest cell in the female body, and motor neurons are the largest cell in the male body.
In a typical scenario, a fertilized egg receives half its chromosomes from the egg cell and half from the sperm cell. If there are 194 chromosomes in each body cell, the sperm would also have 97 chromosomes (half of 194). Therefore, the fertilized egg would have 97 (from the sperm) + 100 (from the egg) = 197 chromosomes.
A sperm cell is a male reproductive cell that is responsible for fertilizing a female egg cell to create offspring. It carries genetic information from the male parent and is designed to swim towards the egg for fertilization to occur.
During oogenesis, the polar body is a small cell that is formed as a byproduct when the egg cell divides. The polar body typically does not have the ability to develop into a mature egg cell and eventually disintegrates.
The ova (egg cell) is the second largest cell in the human body, with the largest being the female egg or ovum. These cells are larger in size compared to most other cells in the human body due to their specialized functions related to reproduction.
The egg cell, also called the haploid cell, is the female gamete. A pair of gametes, egg and sperm, are what are needed in order for reproduction to occur.
The largest BODY cell in the body is the ovum (egg cell). Just a bit smaller than this period.
The female egg.
No, a gamete is a reproductive cell (sperm or egg) that has half the number of chromosomes as a regular body cell. A fertilized cell is called a zygote, which forms when a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell.
A polar body is a small cell produced during the process of oogenesis, which is the formation of egg cells. It contains genetic material but does not have the ability to develop into an embryo. An egg cell, also known as an ovum, is a larger cell that contains genetic material and has the potential to be fertilized by a sperm cell to form an embryo.
An ootid is a haploid cell produced during oogenesis that eventually matures into an ovum, or egg cell. A polar body, on the other hand, is a smaller haploid cell that is produced during oogenesis but does not develop into an egg cell and eventually disintegrates.
