  • Q15

    Why is important that only 1 egg cell (ovum) matures each month?

    A ‘multiple pregnancy’ (eg triplets, quadruplets) is dangerous 

    If 2 eggs were released it would make the period twice as bad

    Maturing lots of eggs each month would confuse the sperm cells

    Lots of eggs would be a waste of resources (eg energy, protein)
