A schematic illustrates a single female gamete with concentric layers: a large cytoplasmic cell enclosed by the oolemma and surrounded by the glycoprotein-rich zona pellucida (ZP), depicted as pale outer rings. In biological hierarchy, this is a cell within an ovarian follicle of the female reproductive system. In reproductive biology and developmental physiology, this cell enables fertilization and embryo initiation following meiosis. The entity shown is a gamete located in the ovary, and the ZP represents a specialized extracellular matrix (ECM).
