What dissolves corona radiata?


Open in App
Solution

Corona radiata: It refers to the many layers of granulosa cells that surround the ovum in the zona pellucida layer.

  1. The enzymes contained in the sperm's acrosome aid in the sperm's entry into the ovum at the fertilization location.
  2. The hyaluronidase enzyme aids in the dissolution of hyaluronic acid polymers in the intercellular gaps that hold corona radiata granulosa cells together; corona penetrating enzyme (which dissolves the corona radiata); and acrosin are all enzymes that aid in the dissolution of hyaluronic acid polymers in the intercellular gaps that hold (which dissolves the zona pellucida).
  3. The next step is fertilization.
