What are the names of parts in egg?
Here are the main parts of an egg and their names:
Shell: The hard, outer covering of the egg. It's made mostly of calcium carbonate and protects the developing embryo.
Shell Membranes: Two thin membranes just beneath the shell, helping to prevent bacteria from entering the egg.
Air Cell: A small pocket of air at the blunt end of the egg, formed when the egg cools after being laid.
Albumen (Egg White): The clear, viscous liquid that surrounds the yolk. It's mainly water and protein, providing nutrients and protection for the yolk.
Yolk: The yellow, spherical part of the egg, containing the embryo (in a fertilized egg) and vital nutrients like fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals.
Chalaza: Two twisted, rope-like strands of protein that anchor the yolk in the center of the egg white, preventing it from moving around too much.
Germinal Disc: A small, white spot on the yolk that contains the nucleus of the egg cell, where fertilization would occur.
