Which one of the following statements about human sperm is correct?
Acrosome has a conical pointed structure used for piercing and penetrating the egg, resulting in fertilisation
The sperum lysins in the acrosome dissolve the egg envelope facilitating fertilisation
Acrosome serves as a sensory structure leading the sperm towards the ovum
Acrosome serves no particular function
A head, midsection, tail, and neck are present for a human sperm. The acrosome, a cap-like structure, is found on the head. The acrosome contains sperm lysins, which aid in the fertilisation of the ovum.
So, the correct option is 'Sperm lysins in acrosome dissolve egg envelope facilitating fertilization'.
