Question

Ovulation is a post-fertilization event.
Options
A True
B False
Correct Answer
C
D
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

This statement is false. Ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary) is a pre-fertilization event. It must occur before fertilization can take place. The sperm fertilizes the egg after it has been ovulated.

Hint

Does the egg need to be released (ovulated) before it can be fertilized?
