## Abstract Phospholipase activity of egg‐water treated __Arbacia punctulata__ and __Lytechinus variegatus__ sperm was shown to result from the sequential action of phospholipase A and lysophospholipase. A transient burst of phospholipase A activity followed induction of the acrosome reaction with

To determine the fate of the sperm tail during fertilization, the microtubules of the incorporated axoneme are measured using a monoclonal antibody against acetylated a-tubulin in zygotes from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. This antibody recognizes axonemal microtubules, but does not

## Abstract In this study we used Triton X‐100 extracted sea urchin spermatozoa to investigate the mechanical behavior of the basic 9+2 axoneme. The dynein motors were disabled by vanadate so that the flagellum is rendered a passive structure. We find that when a proximal portion of the flagellum i
