| 11. | During their lifetimes, men's sperm cells continue to reproduce by dividing.
|
| 12. | By age 15, sperm cells have undergone roughly 35 cell divisions.
|
| 13. | Consider the very small tail or Flagellum on a sperm cell.
|
| 14. | The sperm cells were not fully developed sperm, but rather their tail-less precursors.
|
| 15. | Telomeres are kept long in egg and sperm cells by the enzyme telomerase.
|
| 16. | Sperm competition is also a major factor in the development of sperm cells.
|
| 17. | The Y-chromosome sperm cells contain about 2.8 percent less genetic material.
|
| 18. | The genes stuck naturally to the outside of the sperm cells.
|
| 19. | There are small sperm cells swimming over the whole canvas.
|
| 20. | In that way, they can best conserve the precious sperm cells, Rothman explained.
