Direction: Write a short story on the journey of a sperm cell seeking to enter in a egg cell to share life together as a zygote and beyond.

The goal of the sperms’ journey to the egg is to fertilize it. To do so, the sperm cell must pass through a long and challenging path. This is one of the reasons why the total number of motile sperm cells is very important, and a key parameter for a man’s potential to reach pregnancy with his partner.

The sperms’ journey to the egg begins with millions of sperm cells that are released into the female reproductive tract during intercourse. The sperm cells gain their full ability to swim when they are ejaculated into the reproductive tract.

Upon ejaculation, the sperm cells are enclosed in a fluid called seminal plasma or semen, which is a mix of fluids from the testes, seminal vesicles, prostate, and the bulbourethral glands. The fluid contains elements which protect the sperm cells during their journey towards the egg. The semen thickens and helps the sperm cells stay inside the woman – as close as possible to the cervix, which is the “gate” to the egg.

Liquid extends from the cervix, allowing the sperm cells from the semen to swim into the cervix. Only the strongest sperm cells will make it this far. Once through the cervix, the sperm cells swim across the uterus and into the fallopian tubes.

The sperm cell fertilizes the egg and forms a zygote, which is further divided into multiple cells and becomes a child. The division is the process of mitosis that takes place from the zygote to the child's development.

The sperm and the ovum are produced by the process of meiosis from the male and female, respectively, and when both fertilize, the zygote is formed. The fertilized zygote is a single cell, but later that cell is further divided mitotically and forms a morula, then a blastula, and then the gastrula.

The cells of the gastrula undergo cell differentiation, different organs are developed, and the baby is finally formed. The child then continues to grow in size, and different organs grow and form the mature organ system. After a certain age, the reproductive organs start to mature and are capable of forming the gametes.

Hence, all of these events occurred from the zygote to the child's maturity.

Tetrodotoxin is a potent toxin found in a variety of organisms including the pufferfish. The toxin binds to the extracellular side of the Na+ channel and prevents channel opening. This leads to paralysis of muscles, including the diaphragm. Death from respiratory failure can occur after ingestion of as little as 1 mg of the toxin. Why does this toxin cause paralysis? Question 7 options: The axon membranes become over-depolarized. The Na+ channels remain in the inactive, refractory state. The Na+ channel does not open wide enough to allow enough Na+ through the channel. The membrane depolarization is not amplified along the axon.
