What is the acrosome reaction?

The acrosome reaction must be completed before the sperm can fuse with the secondary oocyte, during the process of fertilisation. It occurs when the sperm comes into contact with the corona radiata of the secondary oocyte. Initally, perforations will develop in the acrosome, and then there will be point fusions of the sperm plasma membrane and the outer acrosomal membrane. The acrosome reaction is associated with the release of enzymes which facilitate fertilisation. The passage of sperm through the corona radiata is dependent on hyaluronidase, an acrosomal membrane, as well as tubal mucosal enzymes. Flagella action of the sperm also helps penetration of the corona radiata. Other important acrosomal enzymes include esterases, and lysin which causes lysis of the zona pellucida.


What change resulting to new material that is entirely different from the reactants?

These chemical changes are the consequence of a chemical reaction.


What is a post acrosomal sheat job function in sperm cells?

The post acrosomal sheath is a structure in sperm cells that plays a role in helping the sperm penetrate the outer layer of the egg during fertilization. It contains enzymes that help break down the egg's protective barriers, allowing the sperm to enter and fertilize the egg.

What is difference between Action and Reaction?

An action is the initial force or movement that occurs, while a reaction is the response or consequence that follows the action. Actions are typically intentional and within our control, whereas reactions are often instinctive or automatic.


What is a consequence if the enzyme was missing from a chemical reaction?

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions, so therefore it wouldn't happen as fast.
