The false statement is 3 where it says that sperm in only viale upto 24 hours. This is wrong because sperm are viable for 24- 48 hours.

Other statements are correct. Sperm viability is determined by its motility. Also it is concentrated by semen.Thealkaline environmentof seminal fluid helps to neutralize theacidicvaginal pH and to maintain spermmotility andviability.

So the Ans is 3.
