• Eggs are female gametes which are formed in the ovaries and released into the fallopian tubes.

• Every month one matured egg is released from the ovaries which is called ovulation.

• When the egg is released, it moves into the fallopian tubes where it stays for 24 hours.

• Incase, if the egg is not fertilised with the sperm then the egg breaks down and shed as menstrual flow.

• Each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46. (23 x 2 = 46). Twenty two of these pairs are called autosomes which are same in both male and female.

• The other one pair is sex chromosomes which is different in males and females.

• Human egg has 22 autosomes and one chromosome, which is a haploid cell.
