Solution

The differences between egg and sperm are

1.Egg cells are also called oocytes or ova. These cells are considered to be the largest cells in the human anatomy. On the other hand, sperm cells are the smallest cells in the human anatomy.

2.Egg cells are the roundest cells. They almost make a perfect circle. The nucleus of this cell is dissolved because of the large volume of cytoplasm or cell fluid until just earlier than conception. Sperm cells have a small nucleus with a small volume of cell fluids, a long tail, and some mitochondria. They possess barely any content. They are the straightest type of cell.

3.Egg and sperm cells are each other’s contrast. The disparities are great; at the same time they fit in with each other. If we notice that the ovum is a sphere-like cell and the sperm as a consequent straight radius.

4.Egg cells are composed mainly of cell fluids internally. These cells allow movements. The nucleus is spread out which enables the chromosomes do not fold up. This cell is mobile and active internally. On the other hand, sperm cells have barely any cell fluids and are concentrated in their own DNA structures.

5.Egg cells can only exist for 12-24 hours or approximately 1 day in their natural flora and can’t be conserved. Sperm cells can exist for about 3 to 5 days in a woman’s womb and can be conserved and frozen at below 60 ° C.
