Egg White

Actually, the white part of the egg is the shell. The albumen, which is typically referred to as the "egg white," is actually clear.

Was this a trick question? lol ; )

The white part of the egg is called 'Albumin' from where chicken gets its nutrition.& the yellow part is 'CHICKEN'S CELL'.

Hey
Here the decribtion on it
The term eggshell is a term for the outer covering of a hard-shelled egg, and some forms of eggs with soft outer coats.

The generalized eggshell structure, which varies widely among species, is a protein matrix lined with mineral crystals, usually of a calcium compound such as calcium carbonate, along with sometimes lethal doses of arsenic [verification needed]. Harder eggs are more mineralized than softer eggs.

Insects and other arthropods lay a variety of styles and shapes of eggs. Some have gelatinous or skin-like coverings, others have hard eggshells. Softer shells are mostly protein. It may be fibrous or quite liquid. Some arthropod eggs do not actually have shells, rather, their outer covering is actually the outermost extraembryonic membrane, the chorion, which serves to protect inner layers. The chorion itself can be a complex structure, and it may have different layers within it. It may have an outermost layer called an exochorion. Eggs which must survive in dry conditions usually have hard eggshells, made mostly of dehydrated or mineralized proteins with pore systems to allow respiration. Arthropod eggs can have extensive ornamentation on their outer surfaces.

Fish and amphibians generally, but not always, lay eggs which are surrounded by the extraembryonic membranes but do not develop a shell, hard or soft, around these membranes. Some fish and amphibian eggs have thick, leathery coats, especially if they must withstand physical force or desiccation.

Many reptiles lay eggs with calcified but flexible eggshells. Some lay hard eggs. Some do not lay their eggs but give live birth instead. Most snakes lay eggs with leathery shells. Often the eggs adhere to one another. Turtles and tortoises lay hard or soft eggs, depending on species. Some kinds are identical to bird eggs. Hatching reptiles, like most birds, have egg-teeth with which they slit or peck an opening into the shell to help them emerge.

Birds are known for their hard-shelled eggs. The eggshell is approximately 95% calcium carbonate crystals, which are stabilized by a protein matrix. Without the protein, the crystal structure would be too brittle to keep its form. The standard bird eggshell is a semipermeable membrane filled with thousands of pores and covered on its outer surface with a cuticle, which helps the egg retain its water and keep out bacteria. As an egg develops within a bird's reproductive system, the shell is laid down as a liquid mineral layer around the already-formed extraembryonic membranes. This takes place in a part of the bird's oviduct which is called the uterus and serves a very different purpose from the uterus of a mammal. The shell is laid down by shell glands. In an average laying hen the process of shell formation takes around 20 hours. Pigmentation is added to the shell, coloring it any of a variety of colors and patterns depending on species. The waxy cuticle is deposited on the shell in the vagina of the bird's oviduct. The chick has an egg-tooth which it uses to start a hole in the hard eggshell to allow it to hatch.

Monotremes, egg-laying mammals, lay soft-shelled eggs similar to those of reptiles. The shell is deposited on the egg in layers within the uterus. The egg can take up fluids and grow in size during this process, and the final, most rigid layer is not added until the egg is full-size
