The answer is A. The process of oogenesis is significant since only one haploid ovum can be fertilized for inception to occur and the one fetus grows in the uterus (there are exceptions such as in the case of fraternal twins). It is believed that this is an evolutionary adaptation for the effective use of energy. If most of the nutrients are directed towards the dominant secondary oocyte then there will be less wastage of energy since it is only the primary ovum that is released in ovulation.
