Oogenesis is the process of producing a female gamete, or egg cell. This process occurs within the ovaries and involves multiple stages of cell division and differentiation. It begins with a germ cell, or oocyte, which divides by meiosis to form two daughter cells. The larger of these is called the secondary oocyte and the smaller is the polar body. The secondary oocyte is then released from the ovary and travels through the fallopian tube to the uterus. During this journey, the secondary oocyte completes meiosis and divides into an ovum and a second polar body. The ovum is the mature egg cell and is the only cell that is capable of being fertilized. Oogenesis is a complex process that involves many different steps, including follicle development, the breakdown of the follicle, the maturation of the oocyte, the release of the oocyte, and the completion of meiosis. Each of these steps is regulated by hormones, such as follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, which are produced by the pituitary gland. Additionally, oogenesis is also influenced by environmental factors, such as diet and stress.
