This really depends on what you mean by "egg production". If you mean the actual development of the egg in the ovary, this begins during embryonic development (i.e. while the female baby is developing in utero). Human females are born with every egg (or ovum) that they will ever have. These eggs are held in a kind of "stasis" until puberty, when they fully mature during the menstrual cycle and are released from the follicle.

The difference between sperm production and egg production?

Sperm production, or spermatogenesis, occurs in the testes of males and involves the formation of haploid sperm cells. Egg production, or oogenesis, takes place in the ovaries of females and results in the formation of haploid egg cells. Sperm production is a continuous process, while egg production occurs periodically and typically produces one egg per menstrual cycle.


What is an incorrect matching of female reproductive structures with their functions?

An incorrect matching would be the fallopian tubes with egg production. The fallopian tubes are responsible for transporting the egg from the ovary to the uterus, but actual egg production occurs in the ovaries.


What is fertilization and implantation in layman term?

Fertilization is when a sperm cell joins with an egg cell to create a fertilized egg. Implantation is the process by which the fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus to begin developing into a baby.


What is the path of an egg from production to implantation of the fertilized egg?

An egg is produced in the ovary, released into the fallopian tube during ovulation, fertilized by a sperm in the fallopian tube, then travels down to the uterus where it implants in the uterine lining for further development.


What is the benefit of uneven production of gametes in oogensis?

Uneven production of gametes in oogenesis results in the formation of one large egg cell and several smaller polar bodies. The larger egg cell contains most of the cytoplasm and organelles necessary for supporting early embryonic development, while the smaller polar bodies degenerate. This ensures that the developing embryo receives ample nutrients and cellular machinery from the egg cell.
