egg and sperm cells

The reproductive system is the organ system that produces two cells: the egg (ova) in females and sperm in males. These cells are involved in the process of fertilization to generate a new organism.
The two animal sex cells are called sperm and eggs. Sperm are the male reproductive cells, while eggs (or ova) are the female reproductive cells. Together, these cells are involved in sexual reproduction, where the sperm fertilizes the egg to form a zygote.
Cells with half the genetic information are called haploid cells. Each haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes, whereas diploid cells have two sets. Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells such as sperm and egg cells.
Reproductive cells are called GAMETES.
The reproductive or sex cells are also called gametes.
Mitosis is the splitting of cells to create two different cells. Meiosis is the division of the reproductive cells.
Meiosis
An auxospore is a reproductive spore in diatoms which is formed by the union of two cells.
The conclusion that two kinds of cells, reproductive (gametes) and non-reproductive (somatic) cells, exist is attributed to German biologist August Weismann. He proposed the germ plasm theory in the late 19th century, which distinguished between germ cells involved in reproduction and somatic cells that make up the body. This distinction laid the groundwork for modern genetics and our understanding of heredity.
There are 46 chromosomes in most human bodies. They are made up of 23 pairs of chromosomes, one of which contains two reproductive cells.
the haploid cells or the gammet cells are also known as the reproductive cells in animals, they are also known as the sex cells
