Detailed explanation-4: -Oogenesis is the process of the formation of a mature ovum from the oogonia in females. It takes place in the ovaries. During oogenesis, a diploid oogonium or egg mother cell increases in size and gets transformed into a diploid primary oocyte.

Detailed explanation-5: -During the process of oogenesis, 4 haploid cells or eggs are produced during 1 round of meiosis, but only 1 egg will be viable. Therefore, the statement that is true regarding oogenesis is c) 4 eggs are produced, only 1 is viable.
