The egg is the largest cell in the human body and the only one that can be seen without a microscope. It can be compared to a grain of sand in size.
This female sex cell is not only a set of chromosomes necessary for conception, but also a storehouse of nutrients vital for an embryo to develop. These reserves enable the embryo to survive before it attaches to the uterus to get access to a nutrition source.
The egg is monogamous and picky. Scientists believe that it is not a passive participant in conception and can choose which sperm will win.
It allows the candidate with the most worthy DNA to come in. After that, a special organelle creates a barrier to keep other sperm out.
