    This chicken egg has been soaked in vinegar for a few days and has become translucent and flexible. Anatomy of a chicken egg. The bird egg is a fertilized gamete (or, in the case of some birds, such as chickens, possibly unfertilized) located on the yolk surface and surrounded by albumen, or egg white. The albumen in turn is surrounded by two ...

    The allantois (/ ə ˈ l æ n t oʊ ɪ s / a-LAN-toe-iss; [1] pl.: allantoides or allantoises) is one the extraembryonic membranes arising from the yolk sac.It is a hollow sac-like structure filled with clear fluid that forms part of the developing conceptus in an amniote that helps the embryo exchange gases and handle liquid waste.

  4. Eggshell membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggshell_membrane

    Eggshell membrane is the clear film lining the chicken eggshell displayed. Eggshell membrane or shell membrane is the clear film lining eggshells, visible when one peels a boiled bird egg. Chicken eggshell membranes are used as a dietary supplement. Eggshell membrane is derived commercially from the eggshells of industrial processors.

  5. Chorioallantoic membrane - Wikipedia

    The chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), also known as the chorioallantois, is a highly vascularized membrane found in the eggs of certain amniotes like birds and reptiles.It is formed by the fusion of the mesodermal layers of two extra-embryonic membranes – the chorion and the allantois. [1]
