1. The part of the sperm containing proteolytic enzymes to digest the zona pellucida is the: A. capacitor B. head C. corona D. acrosome E. cumulus D. is correct. The acrosome is the part of the sperm containing proteolytic enzymes to digest the zona pellucida. It is exposed by the process of capacitation. Then, under the influence of substances released by corona radiata cells, it releases its proteolytic enzymes and penetrates the oocyte. 2. The ovulated mammalian oocyte is arre...

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin - correct answer hCG is a glycoprotein secreted by the syncytiotrophoblast cells of the trophoblast; during the first trimester of pregnancy, the serum beta hCG normally doubles every 48 hours (2 days). In the presence of an ectopic pregnancy, approximately 80% of serum beta hCG has abnormal doubling beta (low doubling time, remain the same, or decrease slightly). A constant decreasing serial quantitative serum beta hCG in the first trimester is indicative of an abn...
