Chapter 49, Problem 9TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Stages of sexual reproduction include the release of oocytes, immobilization of secondary oocyte, fertilization, development by providing nutrition, and other factors; and finally giving birth to an individual. The secondary oocyte waits in the oviduct at a certain place to be fertilized by the sperms. This is highly subjected to the probability of sperms being able to fertilize the egg.
