During sperm penetration, human eggs are still surrounded by follicular cells.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D.

<h3>What changes does egg undergo for fertilization?</h3>
  • An egg goes through a few changes at the hour of sperm penetration during fertilization.
  • These progressions happen at the cell surface, in development, physiology and gene expression.
  • For fertilization, a sperm should combine with the cell membrane and afterward infiltrate the egg cells.
  • Infiltration through the egg cell or extracellular matrix (ECM) is a troublesome task.
  • The acrosome of the egg goes through acrosomal reaction to get through the hard shell of cell.
  • To go through the follicle cells encompassing the egg or oocyte, the sperm discharges hyaluronidase enzyme.
  • This chemical isn't delivered until the sperm comes into contact with the egg cell's zona pellucida.

Defensive chemicals are usually found in unripe fruit but not in ripe fruit. In terms of coevolution, why might this be?
vichka [17]
The basic reason why unripe fruits have defensive chemicals is that they need to protect the seeds that are not ready to germinate. On the other hand, the seeds of the ripe fruits are ready to germinate and so they need to get spread with the help of animals and birds and so there are no defensive chemicals. These seeds spread to different places and the soils help them to germinate under suitable conditions.

Flura [38]

Answer:

what is social structure?

social structure is the patterned social arrangements in society that are both emergent from and determinant of the actions of individuals.

Explanation:

What are some of the factors that influence social structure

1 distribution of recources

-leaves (abundant and dense)- support large groups of animals

2 fruits and nuts-occur in clumps-most efficiently exploited by smaller groups of animals

-some tend to be protective of resources, especially if their feeding area is small enough to be defended

3 insects (widely scattered) alone or company of 1 and 2

4 seasonal foods-smaller feeding groups-seasonality of water availability

hope this can help you....
