-------------------------------------
Sperm have tails because they need to be able to swim to the egg. They wiggle their tail which helps them to move along and make it to their destination.
-----------------------------------------
Tail with the Sperm is just like tail with the fish. so tail makes the sperm to move along the path. it works like a flagella in bacteria.
------------------------------------------------
it is to aid the sperm to swim from the point of ejaculation to the egg. Once it enters the egg the tail breaks off.
--------------------------------------------------
The sperm cell has a long tail in order to propel the head of the sperm, which carries all the DNA information, towards the egg. It is simply to help the sperm reach the egg. Once the sperm reaches the egg, the tail is naturally absorbed through the body's tissues.

What else can I help you with?
What purpose does the tail in a sperm serve?
The tail in the sperm helps it to move.
Which cell has tail to help it move?
Sperm cells are zygotes (specialised cells with only 23 chromosomes).
Why do sperm cells need a tail but egg cells do not?
Sperm cells need a tail to get food or energy while the egg isnt alive yet to need emergy......?
What is the purpose of a sperm cell tail?
so it can swim
How long is sperm cells head?
A sperm cells head is approximately 5 microns in diameter, its tail is approximately 50microns
Why does a sperm have a tail and an egg doesn't?
Eggs do not move, but sperm do. The sperm's tail allows it to move more quickly to the egg.
Why do sperm cells need a tail but egg cells don't?
Sperm cells need a tail to swim to the egg for fertilization, as they are motile cells. Egg cells, on the other hand, are non-motile and stationary within the female reproductive system, waiting to be fertilized. This is why sperm cells have evolved to have a tail for movement, while egg cells do not require this adaptation.
What is the sperm cells special feature?
it has a long tail for swimming through liquids
Does human sperm have legs?
Human sperm does not have legs. Instead it has a flagella, which is a tail-like structure, that helps it move around.
What are the four haploid cells formed in males at the end of meiosis II that develop tails?
The four haploid cells formed in males at the end of meiosis II are called sperm cells. Sperm cells are motile and have a tail that helps them swim to the egg for fertilization.
The four haploid cells formed in the male at the end of meiosis 2 develop a tail and are called?
The four haploid cells formed in the male at the end of meiosis 2 develop a tail and are called spermatozoa or sperm cells. These cells are specialized for transmitting genetic material to the female during sexual reproduction.
When looking through a microscope why do you get the impression that sperm is larger that a red blood cell?
Probably because of the tail. It also depends on what kind of sperm are you looking at. The Head of the Human Sperm is 5µm and the tail is around 50µm. Human Red Blood Cell is 6-8µm. But if you will look at a bulls sperm its larger the human rbc and sperm
