Sperm and egg
Fertilisation. Computer artwork of a human sperm approaching an egg (ovum, top left) just before the process of fertilisation. The sperm has an oval head and a hair-like tail which it beats with a whiplash motion to enable it to swim. The human female usually produces a single large egg from the ovary, while the male releases some 300 million much smaller sperm. The sperm travel through the uterus (womb) and up the fallopian tubes to reach the egg. The sperm must penetrate the egg; this penetration is aided by enzymes contained in the sperms head. Only one sperm can fuse with the egg nucleus. Fertilisation enables male and female genetic material to be shared

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the intricate process of fertilization, showcasing the moment when a human sperm approaches an egg with the intent to merge their genetic material. The computer-generated image beautifully depicts a single large egg positioned in the top left corner, while a multitude of much smaller sperm swim towards it from below. The oval-headed sperm is equipped with a hair-like tail that propels it forward through a whiplash motion. As they journey through the uterus and up the fallopian tubes, these millions of tiny swimmers are driven by an innate desire to reach their destination – the waiting egg. To successfully penetrate this precious ovum, enzymes within the head of one lucky sperm come into play. Only this chosen suitor will have its nucleus fused with that of the egg, initiating fertilization and marking an extraordinary union between male and female genetic material. In this awe-inspiring moment frozen in time, we witness nature's remarkable design for reproduction unfold before our eyes. This artwork not only showcases scientific accuracy but also serves as a testament to life's incredible complexity and beauty at its earliest stages.
