Solution

The correct option is B From animal pole in unfertilized egg.
Within minutes of fertilization, a clear cytoplasmic region forms at the animal pole, and there are extensive streaming movements within the bulk of the egg cytoplasm. The sperm enters the egg through a micropile through animal pole. Hence, option B is correct.
