if an egg only lives for one to two days after its release from the ovary, how is it possible that
a woman is \fertile\ (or capable of getting pregnant) for a few days each month?
sperm can live up to 3-5 days inside the womans body.
sperm and egg always meet.
sperm can survive for two weeks inside the fallopian tubes.
the egg comes back to life when it meets a sperm cell.

Explanation:

For the first question, each mature sperm contains half (50%) of the genetic material, not 75%. For the second question, sperm can live up to 3 - 5 days inside the woman's body, which allows for a window of fertility even if the egg has a short lifespan.

Answer:

False; Sperm can live up to 3 - 5 days inside the woman's body.
