centi-. a combining form meaning âhundredthâ or âhundredâ: centiliter; centimeter; centipede.
An egg is an animal reproductive body that is spherical or ellipsoidal in shape. Inside the egg is the fertilized ovum that grows and develops as an embryo. It is produced and released outside of the animal body by fish, birds, snakes, insects, turtles, and other animals.
An oval (from Latin ovum, egg) is a closed curve in a plane which loosely resembles the outline of an egg. The term is not very specific, but in some areas (projective geometry, technical drawing, etc.) it is given a more precise definition, which may include either one or two axes of symmetry.
