Table 1 Estimated parameter values (μa, η, ζ) and best R2 fitting scores (mean ± standard deviation) comparing experimental waveforms17,47 with simulations of the RD system: n = 10 wild-type (wt) C. reinhardtii, n = 10 mbo2-mutant C. reinhardtii, n = 1 bull sperm. The value of μ = a2KL2/B was fixed as indicated
