Well, usually it takes hundreds of sperm to penetrate the outer shell of the egg. They usually battle (I.E. they push and ram each other out of the egg) until there are very few sperm left , at this point the other sperm meets one of three fates. One; they die and are absorbed into the body. Two; they die and are urinated out. Three; if they are lucky there another egg, the sperm can live for up to three days and thus another egg within three days a the first fertilization will mean they get to fertilize it.
What else can I help you with?
What is contained in the epididymis and what happens to them in there?
Sperm cells are stored in the epididymis, and that is where they mature.
Do sperm eat each other?
Sperm do not eat each other. Sperm are single-cell reproductive cells produced by the male reproductive system to fertilize a female egg. They are not capable of consuming or digesting other sperm cells.
Is sperm a somatic cell?
No, sperm is not a somatic cell. Somatic cells are any cell of a living organism other than reproductive cells, whereas sperm cells are specialized reproductive cells produced by the male reproductive system.
What happens to the egg and the sperm during fertilization?
The nuclei of the egg and sperm cells fuse to form the fertilized egg.
What happens the nuclei of the egg and sperm during fertilization?
The nuclei of the egg and sperm cells fuse to form the fertilized egg.
What happens during fertiliaztion?
Sperm cells(from male) fertilizes the egg cell(from female)
What does a 13 year old sperm cells look like?
Sperm cells do not age in the same way that other cells in the body do. The production of sperm cells begins at puberty and continues throughout a male's life. The structure and function of sperm cells remain relatively consistent regardless of a person's age.
What happens in order for reproduction to take place in animals?
the sperm has to meet the egg cell or cells
What happens to the other sperm?
when one sperm penetrates the membrane of an ovum. it will tickens and secrete an enzyms that digest other sperms
5Describe the differences between mature sperm cells and reproductive cells?
Mature sperm cells are the male reproductive cells that have a tail for movement and contain genetic material for fertilization. Reproductive cells, on the other hand, encompass both sperm and egg cells, with egg cells being larger and containing more organelles to support embryonic development. Additionally, reproductive cells combine during fertilization to form a zygote, while mature sperm cells are specialized for fertilization.
In what cells is mitosis found in?
I believe the answer you're looking for is 'eukaryotic', because mitosis happens only in cells with a nucleus.Actually, mitosis happens in all cells of the human body except for ova, sperm, neurons, and cardiac muslces.
What happens to the other sperms that move to the other fallopian tube?
the sperm will die
