Is the cell produce inside the testicle the same as the cell produced in other parts of the body?

The cells produced in the testicle are male reproductive cells, so they are unique to the reproductive system. A sperm cell contains exactly half of the chromosomes (DNA) necessary to reproduce; a female ovum contains the other half required. As an added note, the term 'gonad' refers to the reproductive unit supplying reproductive cells; therefore, a male gonad is the testicle and the female gonad is the ovary.
