In order to achieve good times in their races, many Olympic swimmers wear swimsuits that are low in water resistance. Similarly, spermatozoa, the male reproductive cells, possess a "streamlined" ...

Spermiation—the release of mature spermatozoa from Sertoli cells into the seminiferous tubule lumen—occurs by the disruption of an anchoring device known as the apical ectoplasmic specialization ...
