Oogenesis
Egg cell production process / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oogenesis, ovogenesis, or oögenesis (/ˌoʊ.əˈdʒɛnɪsɪs/[1]) is the differentiation of the ovum (egg cell) into a cell competent to further develop when fertilized.[2] It is developed from the primary oocyte by maturation. Oogenesis is initiated in the embryonic stage.
