Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The primary oocyte first starts oogenesis by entering the cell cycle and proceeding through S phase with DNA replication, which results in tetraploidy or a 4N state. The mature ovum and polar bodies are haploid, containing only 1N of chromosomes. The secondary oocyte has undergone meiosis I and is 2N.
