gamete. Gametes are an organism's reproductive cells. They are also referred to as sex cells. Female gametes are called ova or egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm. Gametes are haploid cells, and each cell carries only one copy of each chromosome. These reproductive cells are produced through a type of cell division called meiosis.
The male and female reproductive cells (gametes = sex cells) develop from the meiocytes through post-meiotic differentiation in both animals and plants. The male sex cells are called sperm cells (from the Greek sperma = seed), the female are named egg cell or ovum (the latin word for egg).
