What part of the sperm must be present for energy production?
The mid piece of sperm contains mitochondria, which is required for energy production. The energy is used to propel the flagellum(tail).
What are the 5 steps of spermatogenesis?
spermatogonia ----> spermatocytes ------> spermatids -----> sperm
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 function of the sperm cells mitochondrial spiral?
Producing energy APEX
What are the male and the female sex cells?
meiosis results in the production of our specialized sex cell what for male and what for female

What do egg production and sperm production have in common?
If you mean sex with humans is they are both cells.
What are the cells called that initiate sperm cell production?
The spermatogonia are the cells that initiate spermatozoa
Which of your cells would yo expect to have more mitochondria?
I would say muscle cells and sperm cells. The mitochondria is the power house of the cell producing the energy need for the cells. Our muscles use up a lot of energy doing everyday activities and sperm cells need the energy for the movement of its flagella.

What is the name for male site of testosterone and sperm production?
the answer to this question is the testes your welcome :D

What is the unique difference between female egg production and male sperm production in mammals?
In the development of sperm cells, the follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone are released by the anterior pituitary where they stimulate production of testosterone. Testosterone helps sperm cells develop and become mature sperm cells, where they are stored outside the testes in the epididymis. In the development of egg cells, 400,000 undeveloped eggs are present in the ovaries when a female is born. Hormonal messages in the brain cause the ovaries to develop one egg and releases them into the fallopian tubes while the uterine wall thickens. If the egg is not fertilized within 12 to 24 hours, the egg stops developing and dissolves, causing the uterus to shed its lining causing menstruation.
Why do fat cells have fewer mitochondria than sperm cells?
What is the mitochondria?Right, it's the powerhouse of the cell! Why would these cells need more power than other cells? Perhaps because they have to do more work than some of the other cells - doesn't that sound reasonable? Sperm have to swim all the way to the Fallopian tubes. Muscles have to twitch and nerves have to conduct electric current.
What happens when alcohol gets into the reproduction system?
Alcohol negatively impacts the production of male sex cells. Many sperm cells mutate do to malnutrition, heat, and poisonous substances such as tobacco and alcohol. To summarize, it can lower your sperm count.
What regulates the production of sperm?
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) causes the Sertoli cells of the testes (which help nurse developing sperm cells). This begins the process of spermatogenesis in the testes.
