How many chromosomes could be found in ootid?
An ootid is a haploid cell, which means that it contains half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. In a human, an ootid would have 23 chromosomes.
What is the difference between ootid and polar bodies?

Process by which mature ova are produced?
the ticonical implantation splits and forms the mature ova
How many ootids does meiosis produce?
Before the Meiosis takes place, there is another process Mitosis which takes place, the process of mitosis produces 2 daughter cell and than meiosis doubles the cells, therefore the process of meiosis combinely produces 4 daughter cells from 1 parent cell.
What are the major facts about oogenesis?
Oogenesis or rarely oögenesis is the creation of an ovum (egg cell). In mammals, oogenesis occurs in the ovarian follicle of the ovary. Oogonial transformation into oocytes (oocytogenesis) is completed either before or shortly after birth. Further development comes to a rest during prometaphase I of meiosis, known as the dictyate stage, until puberty triggers oogenesis. In ascaris, the oocyte does not even begin meiosis until the sperm touches it. Oogenesis is the process in which the primary oocyte turns to an ovum undergoing meiosis. At first there is a diploid oocyte called the primary oocyte. Meiosis I occurs in which synapsis occurs and tetrads form and crossing over as well and this becomes the secondary oocyte and the first polar body. The haploid secondary oocyte undergoes meiosis II forming an ootid and another polar body. The first polar body also undergoes meiosis II forming two more polar bodies for a total of three. All three polar bodies at the end of Meiosis II disintegrate leaving only the ootid which undergoes maturation and eventually matures into an ovum. It is interesting to note that such an important process in animal life cycles is done completely without the aid of spindle-coordinating centrosomes. Many protists produce egg cells in structures termed archegonia. Some algae and the oomycetes produce eggs in oogonia. In the brown alga Fucus, all four egg cells survive oogenesis, which is an exception to the rule that generally only one product of female meiosis survives to maturity. In plants, oogenesis occurs inside the female gametophyte via mitosis. In many plants such as bryophytes, ferns, and gymnosperms, egg cells are formed in archegonia. In flowering plants, the female gametophyte has been reduced to an eight-celled embryo sac within the ovule inside the ovary of the flower. Oogenesis occurs within the embryo sac and leads to the formation of a single egg cell per ovule.

What is oogenessis?
This is the process by which eggs (ova) are made.It begins with the primordial germ cells (also called oogonium) which are diploid (have the full set of paired chromosomes). They divide by mitosis to produce primary oocytes. Then a primary oocyte undergoes a first meiotic division creating a secondary oocyte and a first polar body (which dies). Then after the second meiotic division of the secondary oocyte, an ootid (now haploid - i.e. has full set of unpaired chromosomes) results, along with a second polar body (which dies just like the first one). The ootid then develops into an ovum (egg).

What is the function of semen?
A spermatozoan is a haploid cell constructed of an acrosome, a middle bit with mitochondria and a flagellum tail made of tubulin. Spermatozoa release lysosomic enzymes from their acrosome to penetrate the zona pellucida of ootids. The spermatozoan loses its tail on the outside of the ootid, which develops into an ovum and has its nucleus fused with by the nucleus of the spermatozoan which successfully enters the ooic cytoplasm.
What meiosis occurs in females the cytoPlasm is not divided equally among the resulting four cells explain why?
the cytoplasm of the females gametes does not divide equally after each nuclear division because of the daughter cells, called ootid, receives most of cytoplasm. The other cells called polar bodies, die, and the nutrients are absorbed by the body of the organism. Only one ovum (egg cell) is produced from meiosis. In contrast, with sperm cells, there is an equal division of cytoplasm. Because of their function, sperm cells have much less cytoplasm than egg cells.

When does an oocyte become a haploid cell?
meiosis starts off with interphase where it is a normal double chromosomed (chromatid because it is still loose and not in chromosome form yet) thingy. Then prophase I occurs which causes the chromosome to make rods of DNA called chromosomes, but these chromosomes are double homologous chromosomes because the DNA has been copied during the S phase of interphase (still diploid at this point). Then after metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, 2 new cells start forming and we know that metaphase, anaphase, and telophase split the double homologous chromosomes, so then the new cells still have double chromosomes (haploid but there are 2 copies of each chromosome), and another round of meiosis occurs (meiosis II) which splits the double chromosomes into just normal halpoid gametes. All this is in accordance to humans
