Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
By 3-4 days after fertilization, there are approximately 16 cells in the zygote, which is now termed a morula.

Answer to Question 2

The secondary oocyte is one in which the first meiotic division has occurred. This is the egg that is expelled from the ovary during ovulation. The other statements are incorrect.
