A liability in the land environment; requires water for fertilizations.
Artificial insemnation with frozen sperm, 80%
Sperm cells are small, motile cells with a distinct head and a long tail. They are typically streamlined in shape to aid in swimming towards the egg for fertilization. Under a microscope, sperm cells appear to be oval-shaped with a long, whip-like flagellum.
Secretions from exocrine glands provide lubrication and nourishment for sperm as they travel through the female reproductive tract. These secretions help to create an optimal environment for sperm survival and motility, enhancing the chances of successful fertilization.

Horse sperm is very similar to human sperm in morphology.
A motile gamete is a sperm cell; it is motile because it has a flagellum and it swims around, and it is a gamete because, combined with the non-motile ovum, it can form a zygote and hence a new organism.
Ferns have a stage intermediate between the spore, and a new plant, called a thallus. In which the male sperm remarkably is motile.
No, eggs are not motile. They are typically stationary and rely on external factors like water flow or other organisms for movement. In the context of reproduction, sperm are the motile gametes that swim towards the egg for fertilization to occur.
The tubular structure in which sperm mature and become motile is the epididymis. This process usually takes 20 days.
Yes, though the ratio of fast-motility sperm may delay the chances of contraception. It should be noted that smoking is the most frequent reason for slow-moving or non-motile sperm.
You cannot convert already formed sperm from non-motile into motile, but there are some things you can do to help improve the motility of the sperm you haven't made yet such as not smoking, reduce daily stress, eat a healthy diet with enough zinc and folate, refrain from excessive exercise, refrain from alcohol and caffeine. There are also some medications that can lower sperm quality.
The epididymis is the tubular structure where sperm mature and become motile. It is located on the back of each testicle and serves as a site for final sperm maturation and storage before ejaculation.

Motile gametes, such as sperm in animals, are formed through a process called gametogenesis. In males, spermatogenesis occurs in the testes, where diploid germ cells undergo meiosis to produce haploid sperm cells, which develop flagella for motility. In females, while oogenesis produces non-motile eggs, some species have motile gametes like sperm that swim to fertilize the egg. The formation of motile gametes is essential for sexual reproduction, allowing for genetic diversity through the fusion of haploid gametes.
Moss gametes are non-motile. In moss reproduction, male gametes, or sperm, are produced in antheridia and are released into water, where they swim to reach the female gametes, or eggs, housed in archegonia. However, the sperm itself does not have the ability to move independently; it relies on water for transport.
The functional motile gamete is the sperm cell in males and the egg cell in females. These specialized cells are produced during the process of gametogenesis and are responsible for sexual reproduction. The sperm cell is equipped with a tail that allows it to swim towards the egg for fertilization to occur.
