D Correct answer
Explanation

New WHO (2010) criteria for normal semen analysis: volume ≥1.5ml, concentration ≥15 million/ml, total motility ≥40%, progressive motility ≥32%, normal morphology ≥4% (strict criteria). The question's option D about 'aggressive forward motility in >25%' is vague and does not match the precise WHO criterion.
