Scientists Caught Sperm Defying One of Newton's Laws of Physics

A recent scientific study has shown that sperm can continue in such a way that challenges the third law at Newton's speed, saying that any action has a similar and side effect. When using advanced 3D microscopy and fluid dynamic models, scientists found that sperm (flagelum) not only pushes the liquid back just to push the sperm, as thought before. Instead, the complex asymmetrical wave patterns that appear that do not provide a uniform and contrast force. This suggests that semen may benefit from fluid properties on microscalas where traditional physics laws do not apply in a normal way. This discovery provides new insights into how cells move forward in the viscous environment and can influence research in breeding, microbiology and the development of microobots. Although the conclusions do not reject Newton's board, they emphasize how it behaves differently in non-classic fluid mobility at microscopic levels.
