Exploring Semen Viscosity and Newton's Third Law

This chapter investigates the impact of semen viscosity on sperm motility, likening viscous fluids to honey and discussing the unique elasticity of sperm tails. It delves into a study on non-reciprocal mechanical interactions in living materials and challenges the idea of a potential violation of Newton's third law. The hosts critically analyze a paper presenting a violation of Newton's third law by questioning the study's boundaries and the significance of the alleged violation.
