in the EGG
An egg is produced in the ovaries of a female bird. The process begins with the formation of an oocyte, which matures into an egg yolk. The yolk is then enveloped by egg white, membranes, and a shell as it moves through the oviduct before being laid.
The yolk is secreted alternately as white and yellow yolk primarily due to the varying nutritional needs of the developing embryo and the reproductive cycle of the hen. The white yolk is produced first, serving as a source of protein and moisture, while the yellow yolk, which is richer in fats and nutrients, follows to provide energy for the embryo's growth. This alternating secretion ensures that the egg contains a balanced supply of nutrients necessary for the healthy development of the chick.
One. Although double-yolk eggs are sometimes produced, they probably never hatch.
Just like in chickens the little yolk sac in the egg of a frog provides a nutrient source for the embryo prior to hatching into a tadpole.
The Yolk's on You was created in 1980.
Yes yolk is yellow

If you are referring to the vitiline membrane which surrounds the yolk when the yolk is released into the oviduct it is only meant to keep the yolk intact.
