    Sol. Extrusion of second polar body from egg
    nucleus occurs after entry of sperm but
    before fertilization.
    The entry of sperm into the ovum induces
    completion of the meiotic division of the
    secondary oocyte.
    Entry of sperm causes breakdown of
    metaphase promoting factor (MPF) and turns
    on anaphase promoting complex (APC).
