3. What is Fertilization?
• fertilization is the process which the
haploid (n) male gamete fuses with
haploid(n) female gamete to form a
zygote.
• In fertilization the egg and sperm must be
brought together which involve both
chemical and physical fusion .
• It occurs in the fallopian tube inside the
female reproductive organ.
• Normally occurs in the ampulla of
fallopian tube with in 24 hours after
ovulation
5. External fertilization
External fertilization is a type of fertilization in which the
fusion male and female gametes occur externally in the
environment .
Unlike the internal fertilization, both, male and female
gametes release into the environment, especially to the water,
so that male gametes can swim towards the female gametes
for fusion. The release of eggs and sperm into the water is
known as spawning.
External fertilization: Limitations
However, there are some limitations associated with external
fertilization such as the requirement of releasing a large number of
gametes, having a low survival rate of the embryo, lack of parental care,
etc.
Environmental factors and timing are key challenges to the success of
external fertilization.
6. Internal fertilization
Internal fertilization is the union of an egg cell with a sperm during
sexual reproduction inside the female body.
During the internal fertilization, male organism deposits its gametes
inside the female organisms. Therefore, the union of the male and female
gametes occurs inside the female body. Once the fertilization completes,
the zygote develops within the female organisms until the birth of the
offspring.
This type of fertilization is common in birds, reptiles and mammals.
Internal fertilization: Methods
Copulation: This is common in mammals, reptiles, some birds, some
fish and certain groups of animals. In this method, a penis or an
intromittent organ is introduced into the vagina or cloaca.
Cloacal kiss: This is common in birds, whereby two animals press their
cloacas together while transferring sperm.
Spermatophore: salamanders, spiders, some insects and some molluscs
undertake internal fertilization by transferring a spermatophore, a bundle
of sperm from male to the female
7. Internal fertilization: Limitation
Very less number of offspring's are produced.
Internal fertilization takes a long time for the foetus to develop, the
mother must carry the foetus until birth.
Parents can have a chance of getting sexually transmitted diseases.
Events Takes place
during Fertilization
Fertilization events: -
1. Site of fertilization: In human being, fertilization takes place mostly in the
ampullary region of the oviduct (Fallopian tube).
2. Arrival of sperms: Male discharge semen into female vagina close to the
cervix during copulation. This is called insemination. A single ejaculation of
semen may contain 300 million sperm.
3. Movement of sperms: From the vagina the sperms travel upto the uterus
but only a few thousand find their way into the opening of the fallopian tubes.
8. On the basis of presence of male and female
reproductive organ fertilization is following types
• Cross fertilization –higher animal such as unisexual animal
• Self fertilization –few animal such as lower category are bisexual
or hermaphrodite
On the basis of number of sperm and ova involved in
fertilization fertilization is following types
Monospermic fertilization – when only single sperm penetrates
the ova called monospermic fertilization. E. g human
Poly spermic fertilization – When several sperm penetrates the
ovum then the fertilization is called poly spermic fertilization . It is
2 types
1 pathological polyspermy
2. physiological polyspermy
polyandry –When two male pro nuclei unite with one ovum
polygamy – When two ovum unite with one sperm pro nuclei
Gynogenesis-When sperm just activate the ovum but male and
female nuclei are not able to unite .
9. Process of fertilization
Process of Fertilisation:
The process of the fertilisation includes two
successive steps which are as follows:
1. The activation of the egg;
2. The amphimixis.
1. Activation of the Egg:
The process of activation of eggs is completed in the following stages:
(i) Movement of the sperm towards the egg:
The sperms which occur in the external or internal fluid media around the
egg, swim towards the egg at random. They collide with the egg by chance.
The chance of colliding the sperms with the egg occurs regularly in the
nature and remains fruitful only due to the large number of the sperms and
enormously large size of the ovum.
The fertilisins and antifertilisins become active after the chance collision of
the sperms with the ova. The egg fertilisin usually occurs in the jelly
surrounding the egg. It gradually dissolves in the surrounding water of the
egg and forms the so-called egg water.
10. (ii) Activation of the Sperms:
When a sperm with a specific antifertilisin comes in contact with the egg
water of its own species. The peripheral portion of the acrosome of sperm
collapses and its enzymes, the lysins are extruded and dissolve in the water.
The central portion of the acrosome elongates and forms a 1 to 75µ long, thin
tube microscope) view of fertilisation, known as the acrosomal filament. The
acrosomal filament is the rigid tube which protrudes out from the sperm head.
When the activated sperms reach to the egg, the acrosomal filaments penetrate
into the egg jelly and vitelline membrane by the help of dissolving action of
the sperm lysins. As soon as the tip of the acrosomal filament touches the egg
membrane (plasma membrane), various important morphological and
physiological changes are started in the egg.
(iii) The Activation of Egg and Insemination:
As soon as the acrosomal filament touches the egg surface, the ooplasm
protrudes out at the point of contact into a cone-like process known as the
fertilisation cone. The fertilisation cone may be conical, cylindrical or
irregular.The fertilisation cone engulfs the sperm .The penetration of the
sperm in the egg is known as the
11. insemination. Immediately after the insemination, a thin membrane known as
the fertilisation membrane is formed around the plasma membrane of the
egg. The fertilisation membrane prevents the entrance of further sperms in
the egg.
2. Amphimixis:
During the insemination, the entire sperm may enter in the egg as in the
mammals or the tail of the sperm remain outside .
The nucleus of the sperm is known as the male pro-nucleus. The male pro-
nucleus swells up by absorbing the water from the surrounding ooplasm and
it becomes vesicular. The compactly arranged chromatin material of the male
pro-nucleus becomes finely granular.
The centriole of the sperm is surrounded by the centrosome and microtubules
which form aster rays. The male pro-nucleus and the centriole move towards
the egg pro-nucleus. The path is prepared by the enzymatic action of the
sperm acrosome and is known as penetration path.
, The paternal and maternal homologous chromosomes get arranged on the
equator of the achromatic figure and the first cleavage (mitotic) division of
the egg occurs. After this division, the nuclear envelope is formed around the
chromosomes of the daughter nuclei
12. Significance of fertilization
It restores the diploid number of chromosomes, characteristic of
species for e.g. Humans (46 Chromosomes).
Fertilization initiates cleavage.
It introduces the centrioles which are lacking in the mature egg.
It combines the characters of two parents, this introduces variations.
Fertilization membrane developed after the entry of sperm prevents
the entry of other sperm into ovum.

14. HOW TWINS ARE FORM?
Twins are two offspring resulting from the same pregnancy. The twins can
be the same or different sex which mean they can either be monozygotic
(identical) or dizygotic or (non-identical).
TYPES OF TWIN
MONOZYGOTIC
TWINS
Come from one
zygote
Identical twins
DIZYG OTIC
TWINS
Come from two
zygotes
Non-identical
fraternal twins
HALF TWIN
Semi-identical
twin
Have the same
genes from the
mother but
different genes
from the father
CONJOINED TWIN
Many complications
resulting of shared
organ
Occur when the
division later than 8
Days
17. DEVELOPMENT OF IDENTICAL TWIN!!
Monozygotic twins develop in 3 ways:
1 placenta and 2 amniotic sacs (mono-chorial and bi-amniotic)
Only 1 placenta and 1 amniotic sacs mono-chorial and mono-amniotic)
2 placenta and 2 amniotic sacs (bi-chorial and bi-amniotic)
1 PLACENTA AND 2 AMNIOTIC SACS (MONO-CHORIAL
AND BI-AMNIOTIC)
The inner cell mass of blastocyst split completely before the blastocyst has
fully defined the roles of each type of cells.
Because there are 2 inner cell mass, hence there are 2 amniotic cells in 1
placenta.
ONLY 1 PLACENTA AND 1 AMNIOTIC SACS (MONO-
CHORIALAND MONO-AMNIOTIC)
After implantation, the inner cell mass splitted into epiblast and hypoblast.
The fluid-filled space created by the separation becomes the amniotic
cavity.
The epiblast develops into amniotic sacs while the hypoblast divides into 2
embryos.
18. 2 PLACENTA AND 2 AMNIOTIC SACS (BI-CHORIAL
AND BI-AMNIOTIC)
The blastocyst splitting at 2-cell stage form:
The inner cell mass will develop into embryo itself.
The outer single layer of cells then forms trophoblast. Then trophoblast
develop into placenta.
Because there are 2 blastocysts, they will be 2 placenta and 2 separates
amniotic sacs.
DEVELOPMENT OF NON- IDENTICAL TWINS
Fertilization of 2 different oocyte by 2 different sperms.
2 separate pregnancy occur at the same time forming 2 different amniotic
sacs and 2 different placenta So, the embryo is non-identical.
WHAT IS THE COMPLICATION OF TWINS?
The complication of having multiple are low birth weight of the baby
because twin usually born premature.
Twin to twin transfusion syndrome which mean the blood from one twin
is being diverted into the other twin.
Miscarried twin usually occurs when a mother suffering in their early
pregnancy yet the pregnancy still continued.
19. HOW DO WE KNOW WE ARE HAVING TWINS?
• Ultrasound scan
• Doppler heartbeat count
• Early/Frequent Fetal Movement
• Weight Gain
• Extreme Fatigue
HOW TO DELIVERED TWINS??
Usually, twins get birth smoothly, with both born head down. However,
caesarean sections are more common with twins.
One or both might be breech, coming bottom or feet first. Which mean one
baby lies across the uterus, in a case like this, caesarean is essential. Twins
can also be smaller and weaker than single babies and a caesarean might be
the easiest, least stressful way for them to be born.
Twins are more likely to need some time in special care after the birth. You'll
probably be advised to stay a little longer in hospital yourself, even if your
twins are perfectly healthy (as most are).
