Flagellar ultrastructure suppresses buckling instabilities and enables mammalian sperm navigation in high-viscosity media
Eukaryotic flagellar swimming is driven by a slender motile unit, the axoneme, which possesses an internal structure that is essentially conserved in a tremendous diversity of sperm. Mammalian sperm, however, which are internal fertilizers, also exhibit distinctive accessory structures that further...
