so it can go to the overis
to ensure the fertilization of the egg with the mostcompatible sperm
Because most of it may be fertilized by sperm from the male invertebrate.
Yes, sperm cells are produced through meiosis. Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that occurs in the testes, leading to the production of haploid sperm cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Four gametes are produced every time a cell goes through the process of meiosis. For females, the four become an egg(zygote).
The testes or testicles produce human sperm. They hang in a sack called the scrotum beneath the penis. Tubes from the testes go to the prostate gland. The prostate produces semen, a liquid, which it mixes with the sperm. It stores the semen until it ejaculates it out the penis.
Actually, it only takes one sperm to fertilize the egg, but the problem is the journey to the egg. The male ejaculates so many sperm because most of them die on the way there, the lucky one that gets there cause the fertilization.
In a normal, healthy, post-pubescent male, semen and/or sperm cells are produced continuously. If not used in their normal manner, the sperm cells will gradually die and be reabsorbed into the body.
Sperm is produced on a constant basis from the day your testicles are able to. Due to the way and the situations that cause sperm to be released from the body, doing so without an erection is unusual.
A sperm is a single cell, so there is one cell per sperm.
The release of a large number of sperm in one ejaculate increases the chances of fertilizing an egg. Only one sperm can successfully fertilize an egg, so the more sperm released, the greater the likelihood of a successful fertilization.
Since the time of the dinosaurs, many females, including human females, have lived with a set number of eggs that can be fertilized during her lifetime. Males continue producing sperm throughout much of their lives. This is because it is the male's job to increase the species and if females produced as many eggs as males do sperm, there would be an overpopulation problem.
Yes they can. In fact - we release sperm a few times a day ! The testes can only hold so much, and since sperm are produced continually, any 'excess' is released when we urinate.
