The correct answer is A. A sperm

Explanation:

Sperms are a type of reproductive cells that are essential for sexual reproduction. Sperms are male reproductive cells different from eggs that are female cells. Additionally, these can have flagella that allow them to move to reach the egg or be non-motile. In the case of human sperms, these have a flagella and also they contain 23 chromosomes; additionally, in this there is 1 allosome chromosome that defines sex and in males and therefore sperms can be either X or and 22 autosomes that refer to chromosomes not related to sex, this is also particular from sperms as eggs in humans can only have an X allosome. According to this, it is a sperm the cell that contains 22 autosomes and a Y chromosome.
