Chapter 47, Problem 1TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Fertilization is the process of formation of diploid zygote from the haploid sperm and egg. There are molecules at the surface of the egg which regulates the every step of fertilization. The sperm has to penetrate the protecting layer of egg fuse with the plasma membrane.
