However, human activities generate additional 'greenhouse gases'. Globally, atmospheric concentrations of two of the main greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) have increased over the last 150 years. Agriculture has played a significant role in this-up to 35% of anthropogenic CH4 comes from animals and their wastes (Monteny et al. 2006).
sperm, sperm cell, spermatozoan, spermatozoon-the male reproductive cell; the male gamete; a sperm is mostly a nucleus surrounded by little other cellular material. egg cell, ovum-the female reproductive cell; the female gamete.
The human sperm cell is the reproductive cell in males and will only survive in warm environments; once it leaves the male body the sperm's survival likelihood is reduced and it may die, thereby decreasing the total sperm quality.Sperm cells come in two types, female and male.n mammals, the sex of the offspring is determined by the sperm cell: a spermatozoon bearing a Y chromosome will lead to a male (XY) offspring, while one bearing an X chromosome will lead to a female (XX) offspring.
