The correct Answer is:
To determine what "oligolecithal" or "microlecithal" eggs are, we need to analyze the definitions and characteristics of different types of eggs based on their yolk content. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Egg Types**: Eggs can be classified based on the amount of yolk they contain. The main categories include: - **Alecithal**: No yolk. - **Microlecithal (Oligolecithal)**: Small amount of yolk. - **Mesolecithal**: Moderate amount of yolk. - **Megalecithal**: Large amount of yolk. 2. **Identifying Oligolecithal or Microlecithal**: The question specifically asks about oligolecithal or microlecithal eggs. These terms refer to eggs that contain a small amount of yolk. 3. **Evaluating Options**: - **No Yolk**: This describes alecithal eggs, which is not correct for oligolecithal/microlecithal. - **Small Yolk**: This is the correct definition for oligolecithal or microlecithal eggs. - **More Yolk**: This refers to megalecithal eggs, which is incorrect. - **Moderate Yolk**: This describes mesolecithal eggs, which is also incorrect. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the definitions and the evaluation of the options, oligolecithal or microlecithal eggs are those that have a small amount of yolk. ### Final Answer: Oligolecithal or microlecithal eggs are those which have **small yolk**. ---
