The male sex cell, or sperm, provides half of the genetic material necessary for the formation of a new organism. It carries paternal DNA, which combines with the female egg's genetic material during fertilization to create a zygote. Sperm also contributes to the determination of the offspring's sex, as it can carry either an X or Y chromosome. Additionally, the motility of sperm is essential for reaching and fertilizing the egg.
