Everything about Acrosome totally explained
In
spermatozoa (also known as sperm/sperm cell) of many animals, the
Acrosome is an
organelle that develops over the anterior half of the sperm's head. It is a cap-like structure derived from the
Golgi apparatus. Acrosome formation is completed during testicular maturation. In
Eutherian
mammals the acrosome contains digestive
enzymes (including
hyaluronidase and
acrosin). These enzymes breakdown the outer membrane of the
ovum called the
zona pellucida, allowing the
haploid nuclei in the sperm to join with the haploid nucleus found in the ova.
