Answer:
Why does it take millions of ejaculated sperm to fertilize one egg?
the 200 to 600 million sperm normally found in ejaculate increases the chance that some will reach a mature egg, eventually with just one being able to enter and fertilize it. Sperms surrounding the egg will release hydrolysing enzymes to dissolve zona radiata and zona pellucida around the egg. Hence most of the sperms reaching an egg will be devastated to help one of their contestants to fertilise the egg cell.
