Question

what is ovum and egg​

Answer 1

Answer:

The egg is the organic vessel containing the zygote in which an embryo develops until it can survive on its own; at which point the animal hatches. An egg results from fertilization of an egg cell. Most arthropods, vertebrates, and mollusks lay eggs, although some, such as scorpions do not.

Answer 2

Answer:

Are the two terms one and the same?.... "NO"

ALL ova (singular ovum) are eggs but all eggs are not just ova.

Hen's egg, for example , is the ovum (central yellow sphere ) plus nutritive albumen (white) and the covering she'll that are added to it as the ovum passes down the oviduct.

Ovum is just the female gamete or the proper egg cell (without any extra parts).
