Question

Which chemical of the egg attracts and holds sperm?

• A. Fertilizin
• B. Antifertilizin
• C. Agglutin
• D. Antiagglutin

Answer 1

The correct option is A Fertilizin

Sperms are the male gametes. A sperm is divided into three parts head, neck, body and tail. The head contains the nucleus and the acrosome. The acrosome contains enzymes that help in fertilization of the egg and the lysis of the egg membranes. It also contains the anti-fertilizins while a fully mature egg contains the fertilizins that attract the eggs and holds it together.

So the correct answer is A.
