Gametes (Sex Cells) have adaptions to increase the chances of fertilization and successful development of an embryo. Sperm cells are produced in large numbers to increase the chance of fertilization. They have:
-A tail to move them towards the egg cell
-Many mitochondria to provide energy to make the approximate 12cm journey to the egg
-An acrosome (tip of the head) that releases enzymes to digest and penetrate the egg membrane

The acrosome is a structure located at the tip of the sperm's head, containing enzymes that help the sperm penetrate the outer layer of the egg. Without the acrosome, the sperm lacks the necessary tools to fertilize the egg successfully. It is like attempting to open a door without a key.
