Oogenesis : Oogenesis: The process of egg formation.
The second "o" in oogenesis is pronounced separately from the first: o·o·gen·e·sis. The word was created from the prefix "oo-" (Greek oon, egg) _ "genesis" (the coming into being of something) = the
coming into being of the egg (the ovum ).
Oogenesis is in contrast to sperm formation.
