4. Indicate whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F).
(b) Each sperm is a single cell.
The correct answer is True.
A single cell makes up each sperm. Sperm cells have a short lifespan and are incapable of dividing. However, a new organism starts as a zygote and develops after fusing with egg cells during fertilisation. A diploid cell is created when the 23 chromosomes of the female egg and the haploid human sperm cell join.
