While only one sperm head enters the egg, thousands are needed to break through the egg's defenses.

Yes it takes only one sperm to fertilize the egg but it does take many sperms to break through the defenses of the egg to reach the egg.

<h3>Where do we observe fertilization occurring?</h3>

It occurs in the ampullary part(Upper 3rd) of the Uterine Tube.

<h3>What is fertilization?</h3>
  • Fertilization is a multi-step, intricate process that takes 24 hours to complete.
  • The beginning of pregnancy and the start of a female's 280-day journey begin when male sperm and female ovum combine to form a zygote.
  • There are two ways to monitor this procedure, and they vary depending on the day the counting starts.

<h3>What constitutes fertilization's four steps?</h3>

There are four distinct mechanisms that make up the stages of fertilization:

  • Sperm preparation comes first, followed by sperm-egg recognition and binding.
  • sperm-egg fusion.
  • fusion of the pronuclei of the sperm and the egg.
  • activation of the zygote.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Acclimatization

Explanation:

Acclimatization is the change in the body of an organism in response to changes in the environment to maintain equilibrium (homeostasis). In the case of the salmon, when the environment changes from fresh to salt water and back, the chemical homeostasis would be altered if the fish didn't adjust. The adjustments in the fish gills are the response of the fish to acclimatize to the changes in the chemical environment in order to maintain homeostasis.
