Question

Order the steps of oogenesis in human females. Not all events will be placed. First event Last event Secondary oocytes are released into the fallopian tube at ovulation and arrest at metaphase II. If fertilized by a sperm cell, the secondary oocyte will complete meiosis II, generating a fertilized diploid egg and an additional haploid polar body. If fertilization does not occur after ovulation, human females generate more oocytes from germ cells in the ovaries. During fetal development, primordial germ cells in the ovaries undergo mitosis to generate diploid oogonia. Primary oocytes are arrested at prophase I until puberty.

Thanks for your feedback!

Order the steps of oogenesis in human females. Not all events will be placed in the correct order. 1. During fetal development, primordial germ cells in the ovaries undergo mitosis to generate diploid oogonia. 2. Primary oocytes are arrested at prophase I until puberty. 3. At puberty, one primary oocyte is selected each month to continue development. 4. The selected primary oocyte completes meiosis I, generating a secondary oocyte and a haploid polar body. 5. The secondary oocyte is released into the fallopian tube at ovulation and arrests at metaphase II. 6. If fertilization occurs, the secondary oocyte is fertilized by a sperm cell and completes meiosis II, generating a fertilized diploid egg and an additional haploid polar body. 7. If fertilization does not occur after ovulation, human females generate more oocytes from germ cells in the ovaries.
