Question

The hard shelled eggs of most oviparous animals are oval in shape. Give reasons?

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{Answer :}}}}}$

Most bird eggs have an oval shape, with one end rounded and the other more pointy. This shape results from the egg being forced through the oviduct.

Answer 2

Answer:

If eggs were perfectly spherical, they would be more likely to roll out of a nest and break. ... The tapered shape of eggs also allows them to fit more snugly inside the nest and keep each other warm. Additionally, eggs are tapered because an asymmetric tapered oval is the ideal shape for an egg to be pushed out of a hen.
