Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

The genetic material, i.e., DNA is located in the sperm's head, and when it combines with DNA from an egg, a zygote is formed. The sperm can enter the egg by the acrosome, which is located near the tip of the sperm head. The mitochondria, which give the tail its energy, are found in the middle piece. To drive the sperm in the direction of the egg, the tail whips back and forth. To fertilise a woman's egg, sperm must travel to her uterus and fallopian tube.
