Solution

The correct option is D After fertilization.
Spermatozoa are amoeboid, while the ova are elliptical. Ova at this stage are actually secondary oocytes, having resulted from oogonia by a single maturation division. Fertilization is affected by the entry of the sperm into ova. After fertilization, ova undergo second maturation division.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
