Following statements are regarding to gamete fusion and the prevention of polyspermy in mammals.

A. In mammals, it is not the tip of the sperm head that makes contact with the egg but the side of the sperm head.

B. The junction between the inner acrosomal membrane and the sperm cell membrane is called the acrosomal region, and this is where membrane fusion between sperm and egg begins.

C. Sperm-egg fusion appears to involve several proteins, two of which are Izumo, in the oocyte membrane, and Juno, in the acrosomal membrane.

D. These fusion proteins bind together and appear to recruit other proteins to make an adhesion and fusion complex.

Plant height of wild Solanum nigrum is controlled by polygene. A pure line plant with 60 cm height was cross to pure line plant having 20 cm height .All F1 plant having uniform height 40 cm. F1 plant was allowed to self-fertilization to produced 4/64 proportional of F2 plant having height 20 cm . What is number of polygene governing plant height?
