The exact number of egg cells that can be fertilized is exactly the same as the number of egg cells that are available. For example, in a salmon, about 7,000,000. In a human, normally one, occasionally two to three, rarely up to five and very, very rarely up to seven. Just because they 'can be' fertilized though does not mean that they 'will be' fertilized!
What else can I help you with?
How many chromosomes does the fertilized ovum contain?
The fertilized ovum, or zygote, contains 46 chromosomes. These come from the combination of 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell.
What do you call the fertilized egg cell?
A fertilized cell is when a mature ovum (egg) is fertilized by a sperm. It becomes a fertilized cell. The sperm enters the ovum and the tail drops off. Then mitosis occurs and the cell continues to develop.
Where is an ovum normally fertilized by a sperm cell?
fertilisation takes place in ampulla of uterine tube
How can fertilization happen?
Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell and an ovum fuse, resulting in a fertilized egg.
What is the name of the cell that results from the union of sperm and the ovum?
Fertilization is the short answer. This process results in a fertilized egg known as a zygote.
When the ovum is fertilized by the sperm this is called?
When the ovum is fertilized by the sperm, it is called fertilization. This process involves the fusion of genetic material from the sperm and the egg to form a zygote, which will eventually develop into an embryo.
How many chromosomes does the fertilized ovum contain?
The fertilized ovum, or zygote, contains 46 chromosomes. These come from the combination of 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell.
What is it called when an egg isn't fertilized?
An unfertilized egg is called an ovum. It is a mature female reproductive cell that has not been fertilized by a sperm cell.
What do you call the fertilized egg cell?
A fertilized cell is when a mature ovum (egg) is fertilized by a sperm. It becomes a fertilized cell. The sperm enters the ovum and the tail drops off. Then mitosis occurs and the cell continues to develop.
What does an ovarie do?
The ovaries in the female body produce eggs ovum, from of the many follicles located in the ovary. During ovulation the ovum is released into the fallopian tubes where it can be fertilized by sperm. If the egg is not fertilized, it is shed with the Endometrium during menstruation.
What becomes fertilized egg?
The gametes, or "sex cells" - the sperm and ovum (egg) - become the fertilized egg (zygote) when they fuse.
A Female ovum and a Male sperm together make?
A Female ovum and a Male sperm fuse to create a zygote cell. It is the earliest developmental stage of the embryo.
The female gamete is called what?
The female gamete is called an ovum or an egg. This is the cell that is fertilized by the male gamete known as the sperm.
How does fertilisation occurs?
Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell and an ovum fuse, resulting in a fertilized egg.
Where is an ovum normally fertilized by a sperm cell?
fertilisation takes place in ampulla of uterine tube
How can fertilization happen?

Which organ nourishes the fertilized ovum?
The uterus nourishes the fertilized ovum.
