What do you think will happen to an egg after being in water for three days? Be sure to give a reason for your hypothesis.

I wouldn’t think anything would happen because the egg has a shell. I would imagine that the shell is unlike a cell membrane because its job is to not allow substances in. Accordingly, it would not have any properties of a cell membrane; low permeability and protein channels absent would mean that processes such as osmosis, diffusion, active transport wouldn’t be possible. Effectively, water can’t move in or out so the egg won’t shrink and shrivel up or swell and burst due to the movement of water out or into the egg (cell) respectively.

The process by which isogamous organisms exchange genetic information during fertilization is called conjugation.

In process of meiosis. The hypothalamus or the master gland in most animals, including humans send signals to the ovaries and testes of the reproductive system. In response to these signals, these ovaries and testes undergoes thesex cells division which is called meiosis. Spermatogenesis in male gametes, is the process of sex cell division among sperm cells. On the other hand, oogenesis is for the female gametes. These cell divisions among respective gametes produces haploid cell which only contain one pair of chromosomes, in number -23.
