For fertilization to occur in humans, only one sperm is needed to weaken the barrier that surrounds the egg.
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Approximately 200 out of 200 million sperms ejaculated during intercourse reach the general vicinity of the egg.  They sperms must undergo capacitation during which dilute inhibitory factors fluids of the female reproductive tract weaken the membrane of the sperm head so that head of the sperm can be broken easily when it came in contact with the egg.

The first sperm to reach an egg isn’t the one to fertilize it because the egg is surrounded by a gelatinous membrane called the zona pellucida. Outside this layer, a layer of small granulosa cells also present.

Therefore, it requires numerous sperm to clear a path through these barriers before one of them can penetrate the egg and fertilize it.

1. The correct answer is; are body cells is going to shrink. <span>Salty seawater is a hyperosmotic solution, meaning that it has more solutes than the cell inside. The water will move (from the cell) via osmosis in order for the solutions to reach equilibrium. Also, salty solution exerts more pressure on the of the cell, so the cell will shrink.</span>
<span>
2. The correct answer cells in the fish will stay the same size. This will occur because both solutions, freshwater lake and river have similar (or equal) solute concentrations. Those solutions are called isosmotic. There is no movement of water or the solutes, so the cell stays the same.</span>

3. The correct answer is to swell. <span>This will happen because sea star egg has the same solute concentration as its first environment-ocean meaning that this solution is hyperosmotic comparing to the lake (ocean is saltier than the lake, it has more solutes). When you put the sea star egg in the lake, the water from the lake will move (via osmosis) into the egg, to reach equilibrium. Water will cause the cell to swell.</span>
