Sperm (: sperm or sperms) is the male reproductive cell, or gamete, in anisogamous forms of sexual reproduction (forms in which there is a larger, female reproductive cell and a smaller, male one). Sperm cells contribute approximately half of the nuclear genetic information to the diploid offspring (excluding, in most cases, mitochondrial DNA). Animals produce motile sperm with a tail known as a flagellum, which are known as spermatozoa, while some red algae and fungi produce non-motile sperm cells, known as spermatia. Flowering plants contain non-motile sperm inside pollen, while some more ba

O esperma é a célula reprodutiva masculina, ou gameta, em formas anisogâmicas de reprodução sexual (formas nas quais há uma célula reprodutiva "feminina" maior e uma célula "masculina" menor). Os animais produzem espermatozóides móveis com uma cauda conhecida como flagelo, conhecida como espermatozóide, enquanto algumas algas e fungos vermelhos produzem células espermáticas não móveis, conhecidas como espermatia. As plantas com flores contêm espermas não móveis dentro do pólen, enquanto outras mais básicas, como samambaias e gimnospermas, possuem espermas móveis.
