The layer that forms around the ovum after ovulation is called the corona radiata. It is formed by the granulosa cells of the cumulus oophorus. The corona radiata serves as a protective layer around the ovum and helps increase the chances of the ovum being picked up by the uterine tube. It provides structural support and aids in the movement of the ovum through the reproductive tract.

Hence, the correct answer is option (1) - Boh Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
