This is the start of an ectopic pregnancy, that is, one that begins anywhere in the body except the uterus. When an embryo starts to grow in the fallopian tube, it quickly runs out of room to expand. At that point, the tube is in danger of rupturing and the mother's life is at risk. Surgery is necessary to prevent an ectopic pregancy from becoming fatal; such a pregancy can never be brought to term.

Sperm cells use sugar (glucose) as an energy source to fuel their movement and enable them to swim toward the egg for fertilization. Glucose is metabolized through a process called glycolysis in the sperm cells to produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell. This energy is essential for the sperm cells to reach and penetrate the egg during fertilization.
Sperm cells are zygotes (specialised cells with only 23 chromosomes).
Sperm cells require more mitochondria because it takes a lot of energy to swim up to the Fallopian tube whereas egg cells get moved by the current the ciliated epithelium lining the tube create.
In humans, sperm and egg meet in the Fallopian tubes. The egg continues to move to the uterus. If the egg was fertilized, it will stay in the uterus and grow.
The move in such as way as to propell individual cells such as sperm cells.

Yes, flagella is like a tail at the end of the cell that helps the cell move.
Yes, ciliated epithelial cells are present in the fallopian tubes. These cells help to move the fertilized egg from the ovaries to the uterus by creating a waving motion that propels it along the fallopian tube.
cervix, where they travel through the uterus and into the fallopian tubes to fertilize an egg. This process typically occurs during sexual intercourse when sperm are ejaculated into the vagina.
