    Serge,

    i tried to find an answer through the internet but was unsuccessful. i thought you would know.

    Why is an ovum much larger than a sperm?

    My guess is that the ovum contains food (fat, protien and other nutrients) for the developing embryo until she can get food after implantation. Is that right?

    Thanks.

    Good question Drew. I'm not exactly sure, but I believe you are correct. The ovum appears to provide the nutrition for the developing embryo up until implantation.

    Another interesting fact is this - men make billions of sperm throughout their lifetimes, but women stop making ova prior to birth. IN other words, the gametes that became my new born daughter came from a sperm less than a week old and an ovum that was almost 30 years old. (actually, a bit older than that but don't tell my wife I said that).

    The ovum is bigger for the reason Drew stated. I was taught this in Gr. 11 bio class.
