Solution

The correct option is C 300400 million
  • Ejaculation is the discharge of semen from the male reproductory tract. A single ejaculation contains 300-400 million sperms.
  • Though only a single sperm fertilizes an ovum.
  • This large number of sperm production has been evolved to increase the chances of fertilization.
  • So, the correct option is '300-400 million'.
