The mitochondria located in the midpiece of the sperm cell generate the ATP required for movement of the sperm's tail. The mitochondrial sheath in the midpiece provides the necessary energy for the flagellum to beat in a whip-like motion, propelling the sperm forward.
the mid peace of a sperm cell is the body
Of course it is filled with mitochondria. That is to provide energy for swimming.
Mitochondria are in mid part of sperm.They gives energy to swim.
Middle Section
They are in middle piece. They are arranged in spiral pattern
Middle piece is formed of mitochondiral spiral , nebenkern around the proximal part of axoneme. The mitochondria are the carriers of the oxidative enzymes and the enzymes which are responsible for oxidative phosphorylation. So the middle piece is the power house of a sperm
sperm is divided into three parts the head middle piece and tail.. head has a special structure called acrosome which secrete certain chemicals which helps in penetrating the ova.. secondly the middle piece has mitochondria which supply energy the last one tail help in navigation and swift movement
The mitochondria located in the midpiece of the sperm cell generate the ATP required for movement of the sperm's tail. The mitochondrial sheath in the midpiece provides the necessary energy for the flagellum to beat in a whip-like motion, propelling the sperm forward.
A large concentration of mitochondria are present in the tail section of the sperm. The mitochondria are the energy components, and the tail needs the energy for it's journey to fertilization.

That is the mid piece. It gives energy for swimming
The mitochondris is there to store and produce energy for the sperm The mitochondria carry out aerobic respiration that produce energy in the form of ATP molecules ( Adenosine triphosphate) These are important in helping the sperm remain motile so it can have sufficient energy to reach the oviduct/ fallopian tube, where it will fertilize the egg. The flagella is vital in enabling the mobility. We love you and good luck!

Mitochondria. It takes a lot of energy to swim as far as they have to.
