Answered by Aayushiii1

The sperm cell has a long tail like flagella. The tail is made of protein fibres which contract on alternative sides, giving it a wavelike movement (snake-like motion). The main function of the tail; is the propulsion system which means it helps in propelling or swim the sperm cell forward to meet the egg. It is extremely important that the sperm moves forward instead of laterally or in circles.
