Number of Human Sperm Lose Lots of Other Creatures

Number of Human Sperm Lose Lots of Other Creatures

The number of sperm released during ejaculation a man lost a lot of other mammalian species. Sperm production is only able to outperform rats and guinea pigs, even losing a lot of pigs are smaller than humans.

Mammal species that can be synchronized with the humans in relation to sperm production is just a rabbit. Long-eared rodent is able to spend the same amount of human sperm that is 280 million in a single ejaculation.

Other mammals are larger than rabbits are generally issued in a matter of billions of sperm, not just hundreds of millions as well as humans. Sheep spend 1 billion sperm once ejaculated, while most of the pigs 8 billion.

Read more, comparison of the number of sperm cells in one ejaculation in humans and several species of mammal or mammals is as follows, as quoted from Oakland.edu, Thursday (26/05/2011).

1. Pigs (8 billion)
2. Beef (3 billion)
3. Lamb (1 billion)
4. Human (280 million)
5. Rabbits (280 million)
6. Guinea pigs (80 million)
7. Sewer rat (58 million)
8. House mouse (50 million)

The number is certainly only an average taken for the fact that sperm production in humans vary widely. The number of sperm produced is affected by many factors including diet, lifestyle and the frequency of male ejaculation.

At ejaculation, sperm fluid flushed out by male genitalia vary between 2-6 ml with an average of about 4.2 ml or approximately equivalent to 1 teaspoon. Figures obtained 280 million based on the average amount that is 66 million sperm cells / ml.

In men, sperm production is reduced globally in recent decades. Figures 66 million / ml is the result of research conducted in the 1990s, while in the 1940s the number of male sperm cells still reach 113 million / ml.

The more sperm that are produced and released during ejaculation, the higher the man's ability to fertilize their partner. But do not worry, men with sperm concentration of only 20 million / ml, although still able to fertilize a smaller chance of actually needed because only 1 sperm cell.
