Whether the sperm can be considered living or nonliving

HI NIHALA

SPERMS CANNOT REPRODUCE . THEY SHOW LOCOMOTION ONLY WHEN ENERGY IS PROVIDED BY OUR BODY.MOREOVER SPERMS CANNOT RESPOND TO THEIR EXPTERNAL STIMULI.

HENCE I DID NOT THINK SPERMS CAN BE CONSIDERED AS LIVING. OTHERWISE THERE IS A DEBATE GOING ON THIS ISSUE SO I CANNOT GIVE A HARD STATEMENT HERE:}
