Fertilisation in Human Beings

• Fertilisation is the fusion of a male gamete (sperm) and a female gamete (ovum).

• It usually occurs in the ampulla region of the fallopian tube.

• The sperm carries 23 chromosomes.

• The ovum also carries 23 chromosomes.

• After fusion, a diploid zygote with 46 chromosomes is formed.

• Fertilisation restores the normal chromosome number of humans.

• Millions of sperms are released, but only one sperm fertilises the ovum.

• The acrosome of the sperm helps it penetrate the ovum.

• The ovum prevents entry of additional sperms after fertilisation.

• The nucleus of the sperm fuses with the nucleus of the ovum.

• The fertilised egg is called a zygote.

• The zygote is the first cell of a new individual.

• Cleavage (rapid cell division) begins soon after fertilisation.

• The zygote moves toward the uterus while dividing.

• A morula stage is formed after repeated cell divisions.

• The morula develops into a blastocyst.

• Implantation occurs when the blastocyst attaches to the uterine wall.

• Fertilisation determines the genetic makeup of the offspring.

• The sex of the child is determined by the sperm (X or Y chromosome).

• Fertilisation marks the beginning of embryonic development.
