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 ;)

What are gametes and which ones are produced by males?
gametes are sex cells that have haploid number of chromosomes. Sperm are the ones produced by males, or pollen in plants.
What do you call an organ the produces gametes?
The testes in males and the ovaries in females produce gametes.
What best describes the daughter cells produced by meiosis?
Collectively they are called gametes. Separately they're called sperm in males and eggs in females.
Do males produce gametes faster then females do?
No, males do not produce gametes faster than females. In fact, females typically produce a finite number of eggs during their lifetime, whereas males continuously produce sperm throughout their reproductive years. However, the rate of production may vary between individuals.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces egg and sperm?
Yes. This process produces gametes called eggs in females and sperm in males.
What are gametes and which ones are produced by males?
gametes are sex cells that have haploid number of chromosomes. Sperm are the ones produced by males, or pollen in plants.
What do you call an organ the produces gametes?
The testes in males and the ovaries in females produce gametes.
Where are sex cells made?
Ovaries in females, testes in males.
Is male gametes larger than females gametes?
Hardly. In mammals, for instance, the sperm of males is dwarfed by the egg of the female.
What best describes the daughter cells produced by meiosis?
Collectively they are called gametes. Separately they're called sperm in males and eggs in females.
What are male animal sex cells called?
all sex cells are called gametes, males have sperm, female have eggs
How is the formation of gamete in males similar to the formation of gamete in females?
female gametes form to the right of the wall of chromosomes, whereas the gametes in males, form to the left and in the middle of the wall. they are similar in the sperm, but unalike in egg
What is function of gonads?
the function of gonads is to produce the gametes in both males and females.
What are reproductive organs that produce gametes in both males and female's?
That would be the Gonads.
What the function of gonads?
the function of gonads is to produce the gametes in both males and females.
What correctly describes a difference between the male and female reproductive system?
males reproduce more gametes
Do males produce gametes faster then females do?
No, males do not produce gametes faster than females. In fact, females typically produce a finite number of eggs during their lifetime, whereas males continuously produce sperm throughout their reproductive years. However, the rate of production may vary between individuals.
