The developing embryo gets everything it needs from both the yolk and albumen of the egg. The yolk is the yellow part of an egg and the albumen is the clear white "jelly" substance that surrounds the yolk. As the chick develops within the shell the yolk and albumen are used up and replaced by air surrounding the chick.
