Poll: Sperm, a living creature or not?
I was just curious coz, my best friend was getting a anti-sperm test to see if her bodily fluids kill her husband's sperm or not. :) Please don't delete or report. Rather than do that, please help pray that my friend's fluids are on good terms with her hubby's sperm... She's been trying to concieve for 3 years now...

My biology is a little rusty, but sperm don't actually move on their own. They have a little sugar base on the tail and when it comes in touch with ATP or ADP (told you I'm rusty---it's one or the other) the combination of the two creates the energy necessary for the sperm to "take off" and start swimming. I would say the fluids around the egg might kill off the *potential* life within the sperm ie the DNA or whatever, but I wouldn't call a sperm alive, because by itself it has no means of reproducing, defending itself, feeding itself, etc.

its living yes. only inside a man or woman for a short amount of time. but not a creature. it has one aim, to find an ova.
