The ovum and spermatids are formed via meiosis (which occurs only in sex cells). From meiosis, four daughter cells are produced (in the female, three of these become polar bodies, rather than ova), each with 23 chromosomes (in humans) or the haploid number (n) in other organisms. This is significant as when fertilization occurs, the zygote (sperm + ovum) will have 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs), the normal number for a human. So, both the ovum and spermatid are haploid sex cells (gametes), each with 23 chromosomes in humans.

What is the female equivalent sex Cell called?
It is known as 'The Ovum' - or Egg Cell. It is also a meiotic Cell that when combined with the male equivalent [meiotic] sex Cell 'The Spermatid' forms 'The Zygote' - which then proceeds to Create The Organism.
What is the difference between a spermatid and a spermatozoa?
Spermatid is an immature sperm cell where a spermatoza is a mature sperm cell.
