<< previous question next question >>

Explanation:

To determine the reproductive gamete powered by many ATP and flagella, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Sperm cells have a flagellum (tail) that uses ATP for movement. Sperm need energy (ATP) to swim towards the egg, and the flagellum is the structure that enables this motility.
• Option B: Blastula is an early embryonic stage, not a gamete.
• Option C: Ovum (egg) is a gamete but is non - motile and does not have a flagellum.
• Option D: Eggs (same as ovum in this context) are non - motile and lack a flagellum.

So, the gamete with flagella and powered by ATP is sperm.

Answer:

A. Sperm
