breifly define Oogenesis
⋆ The diploid germ cells that have the potential to develop into ova are called oogonia.
⋆ this occurs in the ovaries.
⋆ during oogenesis the oogonia increases in size.
⋆ it becomes diploid primary oocyte. { oocyte=> female germ cell capable of doing meiotic divisions in order to form ova }
⋆ The secondary oocyte undergoes second meiotic division.
⋆ giving rise to a polar body and ova.
