The haploid male sperm cell has 23 chromosomes.
Sperm Cells.
Although only males produce sperm, that does not mean that all sperm is male. There are two types of sperm: male and female. Male sperm carry the 'y' chromosome; female sperm carry the 'x' chromosome. If all sperm where male, then there would be no females born. Thus, the difference between male and female sperm is that male sperm carries the 'y' chromosome and produces male offspring and female sperm carries the 'x' chromosome and produces female offspring.
Pollen is the male plant's reproductive cells (sperm).
They are the sex cells. They are haploid cells.
male=sperm Female=egg or ovum Zygote -- the cellular gruop formed after the joining of sperm and ovum
The nucleus of the sperm has got only half set of chromosomes. So it is aptly called as haploid nucleus. The ovum is also haploid. Together they form diploid nucleus. It is obvious that two sets of half chromosomes do not combine to form diploid or two. It's misnomer. But you have to teach like that to stress the importance of half and double set of half chromosomes.
The gametes (sex cells, i.e. unfertilized eggs or ova, and sperm cells).In mosquitoes, both male and female adults are diploid.
Spermatogenesis is the process of making more spermatozoa.
Each parent donates 23 chromosomes to fertilization process however only the male can determin the sex.
Every day about 100 million sperm are produced in each human testicle, and about 200 million sperm released per ejaculation. Unused sperm cells may be resorbed or expelled out of the body in urine. As per literature (Reijo et al. 1995) during his lifetime, a human male can produce 10xE12 to 10xE13 sperm
Gametes are the "sex cells" (haploid cells). The male gametes are sperm; the female gametes are the ova, or eggs.Normally the female gamete (ovum, or egg) is bigger than the sperm or male gamete. The fertilization of the egg by the sperm results in a complete set of chromosomes for the resultant combination (zygote) to divide and form an offspring of the original organism.
Gametes are haploid and each contain only one chromosome. When a male and female haploid gamete unite , they create a diploid zygote.
