During oogenesis, the cytoplasm is divided UNEVENLY so that only one mature egg is produced along with three polar bodies.

During oogenesis, a diploid cell undergoes two rounds of cell division to produce a single haploid egg cell. Oogenesis involves the growth and maturation of the egg cell within the ovaries, along with the process of meiosis to reduce the chromosome number. It also includes the formation of polar bodies, which are smaller cells that contain extra genetic material and are eventually discarded.

Oogenesis is the process of forming female gametes (eggs) and it primarily occurs in the ovaries. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland in the brain also play roles in regulating the hormones (FSH and LH) required for oogenesis to occur.
The gametes of females are called eggs or ova. They are produced in the ovaries through a process called oogenesis. When fertilized by a sperm cell, they form a zygote which develops into an embryo.
Oogenesis is the process by which female germ cells develop into mature eggs. It involves several stages, including the proliferation of germ cells, meiotic division to reduce chromosome number, and maturation of the egg. Oogenesis occurs in the ovaries and is critical for female reproductive function.
During ecdysis the blood circulation is effected due it there may be a blockage between the arteries and veins and it also causes the death of the patient.
