Microvilli are there to increase the surface area of the intestine so that more substances can be absorbed. They are like hairs that come out from the wall of the intestine

The function of the flagellum on sperm is to allow it to bring its own movement so it is able to reach the egg to fertilise it. The health condition would be something around sperm that can't swim haha
