RBSE Class 12 Biology Chapter 32 Very Short Answer Type Questions
Question 1.
Who has given the concept of fertilizin?
Answer:
F.R. Lillie.
Question 2.
Where fertilizin is present?
Answer:
The surface of the ovum.
Question 3.
Who has studied acrosome reaction?
Answer:
Colwin, 1963.
Question 4.
Define fertilization.
Answer:
The fusion of male gamete (sperm) and female gamete (ovum) is called fertilization.
Question 5.
What is Amphimixis?
Answer:
This process involves karyogamy (fusion of male and female pronuclei) and plasmogamy (fusion of cytoplasm of ovum and sperm).
Question 6.
What is parthenogenesis?
Answer:
Development of ovum without fertilization is called parthenogenesis. Neither the sperms activates the ovum nor there is amphimixis.
Question 7.
What is ovum activation?
Answer:
Cortical Reaction (Activation of Ovum):
- Immediately after penetration of a spermatozoon into the egg, the cortical reaction initiates to prevent further entry of spermatozoa.
- Chemical substances found in the cortical granules are released in between the plasma membrane and vitelline membrane.
- These substances fuse with the vitelline membrane to form the fertilization membrane.
- Following metabolic activities are initiated in the ovum after penetration of sperm:
- Fertilization cone is formed on the egg surface.
- Fertilization membrane is formed by the vitelline membrane and cortical granules.
- Permeability of the plasma membrane is increased.
- Rate of protein synthesis is increased.
- Mitotic divisions start in the fertilized egg.
Question 8.
What is capacitation?
Answer:
The gaining of capacity by the sperm to fertilize an ovum is called capacitation.
