Activation of Egg Metabolism in Sea Urchins
Introduction Fertilization is a crucial step in animal development that initiates the processes that lead to development. The events that occur during fertilization happen in the cytoplasm and involve the release of calcium ions. Calcium ions play a vital role in activating the egg’s metabolism and initiating development by releasing inhibitors from maternally stored messages,…

Chick embryo development
Chick embryo development is a fascinating and complex process that involves a series of morphological changes from fertilization to hatching. Chick embryos are an excellent model organism for studying development due to their accessibility and similarity to human development. The development of a chick embryo involves six major steps: fertilization, cleavage, gastrulation, neurulation, organogenesis, and…

Fertilization in Sea Urchin
Fertilization in sea urchins is a complex process that involves a series of steps, beginning with the release of sperm and eggs and culminating in the formation of a zygote. The release of gametes is often triggered by environmental cues, and upon contact, the sperm undergoes a series of changes, including the release of enzymes…
