Question
oogenesis results in how many viable daughter cells? 4 daughter cells 2 daughter cells 1 daughter cell 6 daughter cells
Oogenesis is the process of female gamete formation. During oogenesis, one oogonium undergoes meiosis. In meiosis I, a primary oocyte divides into a secondary oocyte and a polar body. In meiosis II, the secondary oocyte divides into an ovum (viable daughter cell) and another polar body, while the polar body from meiosis I may or may not divide further. Polar bodies are non - viable. So, only one viable daughter cell (the ovum) is produced.
