I know secondary oocyte get hold at metaphase 2 for the fertilization. I do not know how fertilization affects next step. What if fertilization did not occur?

Ya, I am also confused about this, how does it work?
But I do know that if fertilization does not occur then the secondary oocyte will not form into the egg.
 
Doesn't it get helt at prophase II? If fertilization does not occur the endometrium breaks down and then that time of the month!

If fertilization occurs in the fallopian tube-- then morula--blastula (egg binds to the endometrum linning at this stage)-- gastrula--- fetus.

Hope that helps.
