Question

Each sperm is a single cell. State true or false.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Each sperm is a single cell. Sperm cells cannot divide and have a limited lifespan. But, after fusion with egg cells during fertilization, a new organism begins developing, starting as a zygote. The human sperm cell is haploid and its 23 chromosomes combine with the 23 chromosomes of the female egg to form a diploid cell.
