AI overview
An egg cell is the female reproductive cell that contains half the genetic information needed to create a new organism. It matters because when an egg cell combines with a sperm cell during fertilization, the two halves come together to form a complete genetic blueprint for a developing baby.

Äggcell eller ovum är en haploid honlig reproducerande cell, en så kallad könscell, som förekommer hos oogama organismer, vilket omfattar både djur, växter, svampar, alger och protister. Äggcellen är typiskt orörlig och mycket större än den mobila spermiecellen. När en äggcell och en spermiecell sammanfogas, bildas en diploid cell som kallas zygot, som snabbt växer till sig och blir till en ny individ.
