The great part about making this cucumber and basil water is that youâre getting the tasty flavor of basil as well as the extra antioxidants it provides. Thatâs right, basil just doesnât pack extra taste into the water, itâs also a nutrient powerhouse with the amount of Vitamin A it has.
Gametes are produced by the gametophyte, which is the haploid generation. The female gametophyte produces structures called archegonia, and the egg cells form within them via mitosis. The typical bryophyte archegonium consists of a long neck with a wider base containing the egg cell.
WHAT IS A TRUE EGG? âEggsâ are produced in the ovaries, BUT these are not true eggs yet, and will never complete meiosis (a special type of cell division) and become true eggs unless OR until they are first fertilized by a sperm. Within the ovary, a follicle consists of one potential egg cell surrounded by special cells to nourish and protect it. HOW MANY EGGS DOES A WOMAN ACTUALLY HAVE? A human female typically has about 400,000 follicles/potential eggs, all formed before birth. Only several hundred (about 480) of these âeggsâ will actually ever be released during her reproductive years.
