Solution

Ovulation
Ovulation is a process by which the Graafian follicle ruptures with the consequent discharge of the ovum into the abdominal cavity.
This phase is primarily influenced by the luteinizing hormone.
It occurs on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle in a normal cycle of 28 days.
During this process, the ovum enters the fallopian tube.
Final answer: One egg is normally released from one ovary in the human female after 28 days.
