Because the egg cell is carried down the oviduct by little hairs called cilia and the sperm cell has to reach the egg cell before it gets to the uterus (womb).
At conception, the sperm enters the egg and the DNA of the sperm merges with the DNA of the Egg cell.
the single cell when a sperm's DNA combines with the egg's DNA is called fertilization
This occurs when the sperm and egg met and a new individual begins as a zygote.
The term is fertilization, The sperm donates it's DNA to the DNA of the egg & the egg starts to divide & starts on the journey to becoming born.
The womans DNA that the egg came from and the mans DNA that the sperm came from.
At conception when the father's sperm fertilizes the mother's egg, forming the zygote, which is the single cell which is the first cell of a new person.
