• B. Neck and tail
• C. Neck and centriole

Answer 1

The correct option is C Neck and centriole

In most mammalian reproductive systems (except for rodents), the sperm contributes the centrioles to the fertilized oocyte that duplicate during the pronuclear stage and separate after syngamy to serve as mitotic centers during first and all subsequent cell divisions.

So, the correct answer is "Neck and Centriole".
