Dear student,

Sperm is a male reproductive cell. The sperm is a haploid cell means it contains half the number of chromosome of the parent cell. A human contains 46 chromosomes in it. Thus, mature sperm contains 23 chromosomes. After fusing with the egg (haploid cell), the sperm (haploid cell) forms zygote which is diploid.
