Solution

The correct option is A Female Reproductive tract
The phenomenon of sperm activation by which the sperm develops the ability to fertilize ova in mammals is called as capacitation. The secretions of the female reproductive tract remove the coating substances deposited on the surface of the sperms particularly those on the acrosome, thus exposing the receptor sites and making the sperm active to penetrate the egg.
Thus, option A is the correct answer.
