When can a sperm fertilize an egg and why?
When a fertile sperm reaches near a mature unfertilized egg, the capability of sperm to pears through the egg cell wall and discharge its nucleus makes it possible to fertilize the egg. This union of male and female gametes to form zygote is called fertilization.
Why many sperm cell's needed to fertilize an egg cell?
Many sperm cells are needed to fertilize an egg cell because only one sperm cell can successfully penetrate the egg cell's protective layer and fuse with its nucleus to form a zygote. Competition among the sperm cells ensures that the strongest and healthiest sperm cell is most likely to successfully fertilize the egg.
