Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Gametogeneis is a process by which germ cells undergo cell division to form haploid gametes. In females, egg is produced. Oogenesis is the process in females that results in the formation of mature egg. One egg (female gamete) is produced from four haploid cells by the process of meiosis.
