The process is highly competitive, and the vast majority of sperm do not reach the egg at all.

What does the cell membrane do in the sperm cell?

In sperm cells, the cell membrane plays a critical role in regulating the passage of molecules in and out of the cell. It also helps the sperm cell maintain its structural integrity and shape, allowing it to swim efficiently towards the egg during fertilization. The cell membrane also contains specific receptors that facilitate the recognition and binding of the sperm cell to the egg cell.
