Where are egg cells released from?

Egg cells are released from the ovaries in females during ovulation. The egg then travels through the fallopian tubes towards the uterus where it can potentially be fertilized by sperm.


What system contains egg cells?

The reproductive system contains egg cells in females. These egg cells are produced in the ovaries and released during the menstrual cycle for potential fertilization by sperm.


Why does a female frog produce hundreds of egg cells at a time but a female human produces only one egg cell at a time?

Female frogs produce hundreds of egg cells at a time because their eggs are externally fertilized and need to be released in water for the males to fertilize. Female humans produce only one egg cell at a time because the egg needs to be internally fertilized inside the female reproductive tract before implanting in the uterus to develop into a baby.


Are egg cells present in the ovaries of the female at birth?

Yes, egg cells are present in the ovaries of females at birth. These egg cells are already formed during fetal development and are released from the ovaries during ovulation later in life.


Has how many chromosomes withn the egg cells?

All human gametes (sex cells), which means egg cells and sperm cells, have 23 chromosomes. When the sperm fertilises the egg, the 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and the 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell join to make cells with 46 chromosomes. In summary, all cells in the human body have 46 chromosomes, except sperm cells and egg cells, which have 23.

How many egg cells does a female sheep have ready for fertilisation before mating occurs?

A female sheep typically has around 400-500 egg cells ready for fertilization before mating occurs. These egg cells are stored in the sheep's ovaries and are released during the estrous cycle for potential fertilization. Each estrous cycle typically releases one egg cell for potential fertilization, but multiple egg cells can be released in some cases.

A pig has 38 chromosomes in each of its body cells how many chromosomes will be in each of the egg cells released by a female pig?

Sex cells are haploid cells, meaning that they have half the cells of body cells. If a pig has 38 chromosomes, then in its egg cells there will be 19 chromosomes. Also in a male pig there will be 19 in its sperm cells.
