We find a mating pair of rabbits that consistently cannot produce a Viable pregnancy after mating. Investigating further we find that there are plenty of sperm present in the reproductive tract of the female, but the zona pellucida is partially degraded, but there do not seem to be a tot of sperm that are swimming vigorously. Given this information, where is an issue most likely occuring in this mating pair's attempt at fertilization? O Capacitation O The Acrosomal Reaction O The Cortical Reaction O Spermatogenesis
