Q

Acrosome head

A

releases hydrolytic enzymes that puncture jelly coat
acrosomal process conencts to receptors and signals the egg to being the two steps to prevent polysperms
actin filaments as parts of acrosomal process

Q

Slow Block to Polyspermy

A

Calcium wave
release calcium ions from the point the actin filament made contact with the jelly coat
fusion of cortical vessicles
water rushes in and creates space that becomes envellope

ACTIVATES EGG
