100% correct answers)
oocyte ovulated by female must be transported to -
answer ampulla of fallopian tube
________ of fallopian tube sweep ovarian surface and
pick up oocyte and surround by cumulus oophorus
and corona radiate and deposit it into fallopian
tube - answer fimbriae
_______ of fallopian tube move oocyte-cumulus
complex towards uterus to ampulla of fallopian
tube - answer cilia and smooth muscle
__________ million sperm cells are deposited in
vagina at time of male ejaculation - answer 150-
600
______ sperm reach ampullary portion of fallopian
tube within 5 minutes - answer 50-100
,______ of cervix, uterus, and fallopian tube propel
sperm into upper reproductive tract - answer
forceful contractions
_______ of seminal plasma induce further contractile
activity - answer prostaglandins
Capacitation of sperm - answer Physiological

oocyte
- sperm penetrate zona pellucida
- removal or modification of protein coat from
sperm cell membranes

to - answer zona protein 3
acrosmal reaction - answer rise in Ca2+ inside
sperm cell triggers exocytosis of the acrosome
which contains hydrolytic enzymes

zona pellucida
mechanical action by whip-like action of tail pushes
the sperm toward - answer oocyte membrane
describe the fusion of sperm and oocyte
membranes - answer microvilli on oocyte
surround the sperm, membrane fuse, and contents
of sperm cell enter the oocyte
