What dont all ovulated eggs end up in the peritoneal cavity?
Not all ovulated eggs end up in the peritoneal cavity due to the presence of the fimbriae in the fallopian tubes. The fimbriae help in capturing the egg released from the ovary and guide it into the fallopian tube for fertilization. If the egg is not captured by the fimbriae, it may not reach the peritoneal cavity.
The human egg is prime for how many hours?
The human ovum can remain viable for about 48 hours. And sperm about 24 hours.
What is the proper direction of the movement of an ovulated egg?
An egg moves from the ovary to the uterus, through the Fallopian tubes.
How many egg cells do adult humans have?
Adult human females are born with all the egg cells they will ever have, which typically number around 1 to 2 million at birth. By puberty, this number decreases to about 300,000 to 400,000. Throughout a woman's reproductive life, only about 400 to 500 of these egg cells will mature and be ovulated. By menopause, the majority of egg cells are no longer viable.
Why does fertilization require a large number of sperm?
Fertilization requires a large number of sperm to ensure that at least one sperm reaches and successfully penetrates the egg for fertilization to occur. Sperm face numerous obstacles in the female reproductive tract, such as acidic environment and physical barriers, so a large number of sperm increases the chance of successful fertilization. Additionally, competition among sperm ensures that only the healthiest and most viable sperm reaches the egg.
What stage of meiosis is the ovulated egg stopped?
The ovulated egg is stopped at metaphase II of meiosis. At this stage, the egg is arrested until fertilization occurs.
What is going on with in five days after the ejcualtion?
Within five days after ejaculation, sperm will typically survive in the female reproductive tract, awaiting fertilization of the egg. The released egg will be viable for fertilization for about 12-24 hours after ovulation. If fertilization does not occur, the egg will be reabsorbed by the body.
When is a baby alive?

Once the egg is fertilized it remains fertilized until the egg is eaten, incubated or goes rotten and decays. It never goes back to being an unfertilized egg.
The human egg is prime for how many hours?

How is fertilization of the egg accomplished?

Can fertilization occur the same day a women starts her period?
No. By the time a woman is due to menstruate the egg released earlier in her cycle is long dead - typically ovulation occurs 14 days before menstruation, and at most there will only be a viable egg for up to 48 hours after ovulation.
