What gives sperms motility​
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The tail of the sperm, the flagellum

Explanation:

We find cilia in the human body. They coat the epithelial cells of the upper respiratory tract and play a role in keeping dust particles, smog, and potentially harmful microorganisms from entering the lungs.

Their movements enable the movement of mucus or other substances across the surface of various epithelial cells. The cilia also cover parts of the male and female reproductive tract.  

Flagella are found in sperm, whose tail represents the flagellum in its structure. The body wall of the sponge, among others, contains cells with whips that create and maintain the flow of water through the body.
