Are chicken eggs... one cell?

technically yes, but it's definitely not the "egg" you're thinking of!

see, what we call the chicken "egg" is really a type of very large extracellular structure: it's a wonder of engineering built BY cells, but it is not, in and of itself, a living thing.

no bird children were harmed in the production of this image.

however, if we zoom in on a fertilized egg a little bit....

see that weird little spot? that's the REAL chicken egg!

this spot, called the "germinal disk", IS actually made up of cells. it starts life as a single fertilized gamete cell, just like the one that made you!

at least no one ever called you a "germinal disk" before you had arms to slap them with.

this cell will use the energy stored in the egg structure to grow and divide and grow and divide until it forms a recognizable shape:

and WHAMMO.

so no, chicken eggs are NOT a single cell! but they do HOST the single cell that, given time and warmth, will eventually grow into a baby chicken.

buk buk buk :)

Are there any dancers that know any good stretches for the splits (box splits) bcs I'm struggling. Thanks!

The Salem Witch Trials inspired Alexander McQueen F/W 2007 (An ancestor of his was executed as a witch.) The models walked along a pentagram

They really need to research 💀

I just saw someone arguing that there was no concept of witches before Christianity and like. Wat.
