Inner and Outer membranes – protect the egg from bacterial infiltration and loss of moisture
Shell – is made up of calcium carbonate. It is porous , allowing air and moisture to pass through.
Air cell – the space at the rounded end of the egg which function for respiration.
Chalaza – is the thick, white and rope-like strand that keeps the yolk centered.
Albumen – the white of the egg and source of protein.
Vitelline membrane – this thin membrane encases the yolk
Germinal disk – small, white spot on the yolk. This will develop into embryo.
Yolk – The yolk is high in cholesterol and contains all fat in the egg.
