2)1st polar body
3)2nd polar body

Answer 1

Completion of mitosis II in secondary oocyte results in the release of 2nd polar body into perivitelline space.

• During oocyte meiosis, polar bodies are formed which are small cytoplasmic bodies.
• These polar bodies are found in the zygote.
• The second and third polar bodies are formed at the time of fertilization as a result of the division of the first polar body.
• These polar bodies do not take part in the genetic processes.
