Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The oocyte released from the ovary at ovulation is a secondary oocyte. Prior to ovulation, the primary oocyte undergoes meiosis I, resulting in the formation of a secondary oocyte and a polar body. The secondary oocyte is then released from the ovary during ovulation and if fertilized, will undergo meiosis II to form the ovum and another polar body.
