∙ 9y agoWhether an egg is considered a single cell is controversial and depends on the definition of single cell. The entire DNA of the chick is contained in only one location where fertilization occurs. The rest of the egg serves to feed this single cell.

∙ 11y agoThis is a common myth. An unfertilized bird egg contains a tiny egg cell, surrounded by supportive materials such as albumin, yolk and shell. Those supportive materials are not part of the ovum. It is erroneous to think of an entire egg (or chicken egg, or snake egg, etc) as a cell. The cell part itself is tiny (ovum) . If fertilization happens (it happens inside bird's body) sperm fuses with ovum and a zygote (a tiny single cell) forms and enclosed within bird's egg . cell division occurs only after egg has been laid.

What is the largest animal cell?
an egg cell *** An egg (such as the chicken egg) is not one cell. The largest cells are usually neurons (some motor neurons can go from the spine or brain till the tip of the toes, so in larger animals that can mean a cell which is more than a meter long.
What is the largest cell produced by the body?
The largest cell in the human body is the Anterior horn cell. It is the largest cell, it can be found in the spine. It is 135µm (135 micrometers).By largest we are not looking at the mass of the cell but the size of the cell.

A unicellular organism that has only one cell. One of the largest of these is called Valonia centricosa. Bacteria is also in this classification. They carry out life processes to survive.
Is the nerve cell largest in the human body?
the nerve cell is often thought to be the largest cell in the human body however, contrary to beleif, it isn't. In fact it is the ovum that is the largest single cell. By definitinon the nerve cell running from the lower legg upwards should be, however it has gaps in, synapses, which conclusively have been described to not form one cell, but many cells. this question has been raised in many debates, and the egg cell, (ovum), has won the biggest cell award 2008, and will do for the next 3000 years it is thought, until the neve cell may finnaly triumph.
What is the single cell?
Caulerpa is the largest single Cell organism. An unfertilized Ostrich egg is the largest single Cell; Ovums are single Egg Cells. Actually the largest single cell in the world is the giraffe neuron in a hind leg of the giraffe.

Is an egg yolk really the largest single cell?
yes edit: No, even though that is what social media would have you believe. In reality the egg yoke is simply food for a microscopic normal sized cell. The yoke itself does not live nor act like a cell at all. Also even if you were to assume that by a vauge definition it were a cell (the same definition that would interpret my bladder as a cell) then yes it would be an abnormaly large cell, but not the largest. There is a kind of plant growing in south america which can get multiple meters in length. So im sorry but it is not the largest single cell, but that would be cool
