An egg matures in one of the ovaries due to the influence of hormones, primarily follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), released by the pituitary gland. FSH stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles, each containing an immature egg. As the follicles grow, they produce estrogen, which further regulates the maturation process and prepares the body for potential ovulation. This hormonal interplay ultimately leads to the selection of a dominant follicle, which releases a mature egg during ovulation.

What is the job of FSH?
tells you when the ovary kicks out the egg.
Where do ova mature?
Ova (eggs) mature in the ovaries of the female reproductive system. During the menstrual cycle, one egg is released from an ovary each month in a process called ovulation.

Cells oogenesis produce?
Cells in oogenesis produce mature eggs or ova. Oogenesis is the process by which female germ cells or oogonia develop into mature eggs through several stages of cell division and maturation. In humans, oogenesis occurs in the ovaries and produces one mature egg during each menstrual cycle.
How does follicle development contribute to the process of ovulation in the female reproductive system?
Follicle development plays a crucial role in ovulation by nurturing and releasing the egg. During the menstrual cycle, follicles in the ovaries mature and one dominant follicle releases a mature egg during ovulation. This process is essential for fertility and the ability to conceive.
'Where does the egg mature in the female reproductive system?
In the Female Reproductive System, an Egg Matures in either ONE of the TWO Ovaries; this occurs approximately every 28 days.When an Egg Matures in the Ovary, it is then Released into the fallopian tube, this is called Ovulation. Anytime after Ovulation (and before Menstruation), the Mature Egg is available for fertilization. During Ovulation and immediately after, the uterus lining thickens in preperation for a fertilized egg.If, however, the Egg is NOT fertilized then the Unfertilized Egg, the thickened uterus lining, as well as some blood and fluids is shed; this happens approximately every 28 days and is known as Menstruation.
Can sperm go through the fallopian tube to the ovaries to make one thousand babies?
No, luckily that is not how it works. Although there are many eggs stored in the ovaries, they can not be fertilized until they are released and go through a process to mature during ovulation. Once in a while, more than one egg can be released. This is one of the ways twins and triplets are created.
How does the female hormone estrogen affect females during puberty?
One of the eggs in your ovaries can mature.
How many egg cell produce the ovary in one month?
Hundreds of eggs begin to mature each month, usually only one egg will become dominant during each menstrual cycle, and reach its' fully mature state, capable of ovulation and fertilization.200-300 egg cells
What is the process in which a mature ovum released from one of the ovaries call?
The process in which a mature ovum is released from one of the ovaries is called ovulation. During the menstrual cycle, a mature follicle bursts and releases the ovum into the fallopian tube, where it may be fertilized by sperm. Ovulation typically occurs around the midpoint of the menstrual cycle and is regulated by hormonal changes.
what is the term for release of an egg?
Ovulation is the term used when eggs are released from one of the ovaries.
What is The process of releasing one mature ovum each month?
This happens to women who are genetically predisposed to having twins or are hyper-stimulated by hormones to bring about ovulation. In a "normal cycle" there are multiple follicles maturing simultaneously - usually only one fully matures by the time of ovulation. If there are 2 mature ovum the possibility of fraternal twins is high, if there are multiple mature ovum a pregnancy like Kate Gosselin (formerly of Jon and Kate Plus 8 - fame) where 7 ovum were fertilized at one insemination (one didn't develop past a few weeks) - most doctors would advise against attempting insemination due to high likely-hood of a higher order multiple pregnancy (HOM) or they would suggest selective reduction. This was the route Kate was advised to take, which she declined for religious and personal reasons.
