Question

Which of the following is not an essential feature of sperms that determine the fertility of a male?

• A. Sperm count
• B. Sperm motility
• C. Sperm height
• D. Sperm production rate

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Sperm height

The main factors considered to assess a man's fertility are: Sperm Count: This refers to the number of sperm in a milliliter of semen.
This directly affects the chances of conception.

Sperm Motility: This refers to how efficiently sperm can move and move towards the egg. The ability to move forward is the most important.

Sperm Morphology: This is a measure of the normal shape and size of the head, neck, midpiece, and tail of the sperm.

Not includedSperm Height is not considered a medical criterion for determining fertility. Since sperm are microscopic cells, their dimensions (length and width) are measured in micrometers (micrometer - $\mu \text{m}$), not in height.
