Let's look at the following diagram of a sperm cell.
00:05
So i have out like the main functions of each part, but i'm just going to explain it further.
00:13
So the aquosome is like the very tip of the sperm cell and it has these digestive enzymes so that it can penetrate through the hard layer of the egg.
00:25
So the hard layer of the egg is called the zona pellucida and it's very, it's actually very, very, hard.
00:32
It's like a shell, basically.
00:33
And you need enzymes, which the sperm has in the acrosome, to penetrate through that layer so that the egg can be fertilized.

Then we have the nucleus, which obviously carries the dna information...
