For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?
Gametes are cells that each have half of the normal chromosomes of the individual they belong to. The reason for this is that during reproduction, the chromosomes in each of the gametes add together to create a full set of chromosomes. Each half a set of chromosomes comes from a different person, which is why sexual reproduction produces offspring with mixed and different traits than their parents. The gametes in males are sperm, and the gametes in females are ova(egg cells). I hope this helped out ;)
Literally millions of different gametes. That is why each individual is unique.
Meiosis in simple terms is the process by which gametes (sperm and egg) fuse together to produce a fertilised egg. Haploid is a word that refers to how many chromosomes a certain cell has. In this case the gametes have a haploid number of chromosomes, which is half the number a normal cell has. A normal cell has a diploid number of chromosomes. So in meiosis the two gametes come together with their hapoid number of chromosomes each to create an egg that has a diploid (standard) number of chromosomes.
A gamete needs only half the number of chromosomes because two gametes join together =]

Meiosis takes a cell from 2N (Diploid) to N (haploid) and produces 4 daughter cells at 23 chromosomes. These are the sex gametes. A normal 2N cell would have 46 chromosomes.

Conifers produce gametes within their cones.
