From diploid to haploid 1. Acrosome reaction 2. Phases of Fertilization a. Penetration of the Corona Radiata b. Penetration of the Zona Pellucida c. Fusion of the oocyte and sperm cell membrane 3. In both sexes, gametes undergo a period of maturation through different stages. Describe these stages and the process of development to mature ova and spermatazoa.
Fertilization involves a number of changes in the sperm and ova.
Review these changes and the process by which a spermatazoa penetrates and fertilizes an ovum. The fertilized egg moves down the fallopian tube and into the uterus where it will be implanted, if all proceeds well. Describe the path the zygote travels, the time course of this passage, and the changes the zygote goes through.
