A 3D filming technique has revealed that human sperm really swim with a corkscrew motion like otters, rather than wiggling like eels due to their 'wonky tails'. Developed by scientists led from ...

A new study using 3D microscopy says human sperm roll like 'playful otters' when they swim Researchers used state-of-the-art 3D microscopy and mathematics to prove this The corkscrew motion allows ...

A team of researchers from Monash University has uncovered how swimming sperm create corkscrew-shaped fluid vortices that help propel them forward, improving their chances of reaching the egg. The ...

Worms that create intricate, tangled blobs with their bodies can disentangle in milliseconds when threatened. This speedy unscrambling is possible because each worm wriggles in a special corkscrew ...
