Answer

The correct answer is **Spermatozoid**.Spermatozoids, also known as sperm cells, are the male gametes in plants like mosses and ferns. They have flagella (whip-like appendages) that enable them to swim through water to reach the female gamete (egg) for fertilization. This motility makes them self-propelled and mobile.
