Sperm typically takes several hours to travel and meet the egg in the fallopian tube after ejaculation, so it is unlikely that a sperm can reach and fertilize an egg in just 2 seconds. The journey of the sperm to the egg is a complex process that requires time.

It is the sperm that fertilizes the egg that will determine the sex of your baby. Some sperm carry the X-chromosome and some sperm carry the Y-chromosome. If an X-chromosome-carrying sperm fertilizes the egg, the baby will be a girl. If a Y-chromosome-carrying sperm fertilizes the egg, the baby will be a boy.

How does sperm penetrate an egg during the process of fertilization?

During fertilization, the sperm penetrates the egg by releasing enzymes that break down the outer layer of the egg, allowing the sperm to enter and fuse with the egg's nucleus. This fusion combines the genetic material of the sperm and egg to form a new cell, called a zygote, which will develop into a new organism.
