In human females, meiosis-II is not completed until
- uterine implantation
- birth
- puberty
- fertilisation
Answer
(4) fertilisation
Solution
As per NCERT, the primary oocyte completes meiosis I within the tertiary follicle to form the secondary oocyte, which is released at ovulation.
⇒ The entry of sperm into the secondary oocyte induces the completion of its meiotic (meiosis-II) division, forming the ovum and the second polar body.
∴ Meiosis-II is not completed until fertilisation.
