Detailed explanation-1: -Meiosis II occurs immediately after the sperm enters the secondary oocyte. The oocyte is blocked in the metaphase of meiosis II after ovulation prior to fertilization. Meiosis is a process that takes place in the ovaries of females during the development of mature gametes or eggs.
Detailed explanation-2: -The secondary oocyte completes meiosis at the time of fertilization. After completing meiosis, the secondary oocyte gives rise to an ovum.
Detailed explanation-3: -The secondary oocyte enters meiosis II, but is frozen in metaphase II until fertilization occurs. During ovulation, the egg matures further and is released from the ovarian follicles into the oviduct. If it is fertilized by sperm, it finishes meiosis II and becomes an ootid.
