How does the shape of the sperm cell help it carry out its job?

It doesn't really help it at all. The sperm cell carries DNA from the male's body int the female's, so it can make a child. The shape doesn't help because it digs into the egg o it can fertilize it.
My only other *guess* would be that the shape is thin and long, so it can travel around easier.

∙ 14y agoThe shape of a sperm cell is similar to that of a tadpole. The flagellum (tail) undulates back and forth causing propulsion of the cell -- a process called flagellate locomotion. Sperm cells need to be able to travel in order to join the ovum in fertilization. In this way, the structure of the tail that provides locomotion fits it's function.
