What helps animal sperm cells move so that they can reach and egg?

There are different ways of movement and they are typical for different kinds of cells.Flagella are long, rotating protein strings with which cells can propel themselves forward. These can occur on bacteria as single, double or even multiples, and in different arrangements.Cilia are also protein structures, but unlike flagella, they make a waving motion. They are typical for bacteria, which also use them for attaching themselves (e.g. bacteria which infect the urinary tract attach themselves using cilia to protect from being washed out with the urine).Eukaryotes (amoeba, yeasts, fungi, plant and animal cells) move by membrane protrusions called 'pseudopods'. Unlike prokaryotes, they have an internal cell skeleton made of microtubules, which allows them to push their cell membrane outwards in one place, and then pull themselves towards this.
