FERTILIZATION

FERTILIZATION
Spermatozoon functional life
48-72 hours
critical time span during which fertilization occur is about
72 hours
Ovum is capable of fertilization for only
24-48 hours
Spermatozoa move by means of
flagella (tails) and uterine contractions
Sperm reach the cervix for
8 seconds
Sperm reach the fallopian tube for
5 minutes
Final process that sperm must undergo to be ready for fertilization
Capacitation
The sperm moves toward the ovum, consist of changes in the plasma membrane of the sperm head which reveals the sperm binding receptor sites
Capacitation
Resulting structure of chromosomal material of the ovum and spermatozoa fuse

Fertilized ovum has_____chromosomes
46
If an x-carrying spermatozoon enters the ovum, the resulting child will be______and if y-carrying, resulting child will be_____
female ; male
- Maturation of both sperm & ovum
- Ability of the sperm to reach the ovum
- Ability of the sperm to penetrate the cell membrane of the ovum and achieve fertilization
Three factors of fertilization occurrence
once fertilization is complete, the zygote migrates toward the body of the uterus, aided by the currents initiated by the muscular contractions of the fallopian tubes.
