described the sperm and the journey that they have to go thru to even fertilize an egg is really amazing to me. I was a little grossed out by the sperm cemetery. It’s amazing how 99% of the sperm are killed instantly and only about 3000 of them make it thru just the vagina. Then only certain sperm with a chemical coating make it thru the fallopian tubes. Once they make it thru they can finally rest and wait. The releasing egg sends chemical signals luring the sperm towards it. Once the sperm enters the

birth can be. In the beginning it takes you through the steps of how sperm travels as for looking for an egg to fertilize. Although‚ in just one teaspoon of sperm there can be over 300 million sperm cells‚ only around 40% of them are usable. The other 60% can be deformed such as having two tales. The sperm can reach the Fallopian tube within 30 minutes‚ but it can be a 2 day swim just for sperm to reach an accepting egg. After the sperm that was strong enough to make it through the rough travel have met

(commonly called sperm cells) and gametes produced by females through Oogenesis process are called oocytes (commonly referred to as ova or eggs). As gametes are formed‚ the 46 chromosomes from each parent cell (23 pairs of chromosomes) are divided through meiosis so that each gamete is haploid‚ having only 23 unpaired chromosomes. Spermatozoa‚ produced by males‚ contain a 23rd chromosome that is either an X chromosome (female) or the analogous Y chromosome (male)‚ making each sperm cell either female

In vitro fertilization (IVF) technique involves the fertilization of the egg by the sperm in test tubes‚ outside the mother’s body. This allows doctors to screen the embryos. Genetic screening has made it possible to eliminate genes associated with several genetic defects and terminal illnesses. A revolutionary technique called ’preimplantation
