The correct answer is:  d) begins later in life

Eggs or female reproductive cells are formed well before birth in a huge number (primordial oocytes). But, the number of oocyte decreases after birth constantly (there are 2 million oocytes at birth and 40,000 of them in puberty). At menopause, no egg cells are left.

On the other hand, the first sperms are formed only from puberty, but the production of those cells never stops.

weeeeeb [17]

All viruses depend on cells for reproduction and metabolic processes. By themselves, viruses do not encode for all of the enzymes necessary for viral replication. But within a host cell, a virus can commandeer cellular machinery to produce more viral particles. Bacteriophages replicate only in the cytoplasm, since prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus or organelles. In eukaryotic cells, most DNA viruses can replicate inside the nucleus, with an exception observed in the large DNA viruses, such as the poxviruses, that can replicate in the cytoplasm. RNA viruses that infect animal cells often replicate in the cytoplasm. so, the answer is A.
