What can change the way an enzyme acts?

Enzyme activity is affected by other molecules, temperature, chemical environment (e.g., pH), and the concentration of substrate and enzyme. Activators are molecules that encourage enzyme activity, and inhibitors are enzymes that decrease enzyme activity. Sometimes a cofactor is necessary for the enzyme to work.

How does ovum prevent multiple penetrations of sperm cells along its periphery?

as soon as a single sperm fertilises the ovum a change of composition takes place in ovum's outer layer forming zona pellucida which prevents the penetration of other sperms.
