Fig. 31. Diagram to show stages in fertilization of an egg by a spermatozoon
The three polar bodies lie at one pole, and the spermatozoon is represented as entering near the opposite side of the egg in 1 and 2. The head of the sperm swells up and moves towards the egg-nucleus, that has reformed after the polar bodies have been given off. A centrosome forms near the sperm-nucleus. It divides into two centrosomes, which begin to se])arate as a central spindle appears between them. Around each centrosome astral rays develop. The two nuclei come together in the middle of the egg to become the segmentation nucleus. A spindle develops around the nucleus.
