Volume of the sea Urchin egg is 5.2 x 105 µm3 . You fertilize the cells and take measurements of cellular dimensions at the four blastomere stage. Assume a perfect sphere. 6) What would you predict is the surface area of each the sea urchin blastomeres? A) 1 x 10^2 µm2 B) 5.66 x 10^5. µm2 C) 6.66 µm2 D) 3.9 x 10^5 µm2 E) 1.24 x10^4 µm2 F) None of these

BASIC INFORMATION
FERTILIZATION
It is the process of the fusion of the male as well as the female gametes. The male gamete is the sperm while the female gamete is called an egg.
This process leads to the formation of the zygote which is diploid in nature.
The fertilization process in mammals is internal.
There are few stages of this process;
> The Preparation of the sperms
> The recognition of the sperms and the egg leading to their binding
> Fusion of both the gametes
> Lastly the fusion of the pronuclei of the gametes and zygote's activation
