What happens during fertilisation in humans after many sperms reach close to the ovum?

1. Only two sperms nearest the ovum penetrate zona pellucida
2. Secretions of acrosome help one sperm enter the cytoplasm of the ovum through zona pellucida
3. All sperms except the one nearest to the ovum lose their tails
4. Cells of corona radiata trap all the sperms except one

Sperm has several components out of which the function of the acrosome is to:

1. Produce base to neutralize the acidic environment of the female reproductive system
2. Propel the sperm as they swim through the fluid of the female reproductive tract
3. Release an enzyme that breaks down the membrane of the ovum
4. Metabolise the sugars provided by the semen for energy

Fertilisation in humans is practically feasible only if

1. the ovum and sperms are transported simultaneously to ampullary-isthmic junction of the fallopian tube
2. the ovum and sperms are transported simultaneously to ampullary-isthmic junction of the cervix
3. the sperms are transported into cervix within 48 hrs of release of ovum in uterus
4. the sperms are transported into vagina just after the release of ovum in fallopian tube

Consider the following two statements:
I. Not all copulations lead to fertilization and pregnancy
II. Fertilization can occur if the ovum and the sperms are simultaneously transported to the fallopian tubes.
1. Both I and II are correct and II correctly explains I
2. Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I
3. I is correct but II is incorrect
4. I is incorrect but II is correct
