A reproductive cell produced by the ovary; also called an ovum.

Egg (Biology)

1. The haploid cell within the female ovary.

Egg (Contraception)

Each month, during the menstrual cycle, an egg is released from one ovary and then travels from the ovary into a fallopian tube. This is where the egg can meet and unite with a sperm. If this occurs, it is the beginning cell of a baby. The fertilized egg then continues through the fallopian tube and into the uterus.

Egg (Dairy Production)

Female reproductive cell that contains half the genetic material of a normal cell (syn: Ovum, Female Gamete).

Egg (Dairy Products)

Most eggs come from hens, but duck, goose, and quail eggs are also available. Eggs should be refrigerated in the original container, large end up. Because the yolk is high in cholesterol, imitation eggs come from egg whites and additives.

Egg (Drugs)

Crack Cocaine

Egg (Ecology)

The first stage of life for most animals. Most insects have four stages in their life cycle, and the first stage is the egg. Frogs change from eggs to tadpoles to adults. Birds hatch from eggs and grow into adulthood. So do reptiles. So do spiders.

Egg (Fish, Poultry and Meats)

Most eggs come from hens, but duck, goose, and quail eggs are available too. Eggs should be refrigerated in the original container, large end up. Because the yolk is high in cholesterol, imitation eggs come from egg whites and additives.

Egg (Gerontology)

A female haploid germ cell.

Egg (Hunting)

In fish, the term egg usually refers to female haploid gametes. In reptiles, birds, amphibians and insects the term egg refers to a fertilized ovum with protective and nutritive tissues.

Egg (Science)

Female reproductive cell produced in the ovaries; ovum

Egg (Sexual Health)

The reproductive cell in women; the largest cell in the human body.

Egg (Sexually Transmitted Diseases)

A very small piece that is stored in a female's ovary. It is also called a woman's sex cell. This works like a little envelope with all of the pieces and directions inside of it to make a person. A girl is born with all the EGGS she will ever have. This is about 1-2 million. The ovary pushes out one every month, about two weeks after a woman has her period. An EGG can live only two days after this happens. If a sperm enters the vagina and finds the EGG a woman can become pregnant.
