Question

What happens to the tail upon merging with the egg?

Answer 1

$\textbf{\large{Answer -}}$

The tail upon merging with the egg when fusing with the egg loses its tail.

Only the head of the sperm remains which contains the genetic material.

And then the fertilisation starts which involve combining of genetic material of egg and sperm.

Then, the egg moves towards uterus and starts to divide and form embryo.

Answer 2

$\huge\red{Answer}$

The sperm loses its tail, leaving only the head (which contains the genetic material) inside the egg. Fertilisation occurs when the genetic material from the egg and sperm combine. As the fertilised egg (known as a zygote) continues to travel along the fallopian tube, it starts to divide and form an embryo.
