Pollination
This process is simply pollination.
The result of a male gamete fertilizing a female gamete is a zygote.
The union of male gamete with female gamete during sexual reproduction is known as fertilization. In lower plants, the male gamete travels through its flagella in liquid medium to reach up to the egg of the female gamete to unite but in higher plants, male gametes are contributed by the pollen grains and female gamete develops in the ovary or embryosac. After pollination, the pollen grain germinates and sends a pollen tube towards the female gamete. Reaching the egg the male gametes travelling in the pollen tube are discharged and one of the male gamete fuses with the egg to form the zygote for embryo development and the other gamete of the same pollen grain fuses with the secondary nucleus (in case of Angiospermic plants) to form the primary endosperm nucleus. This double fusion of male gametes in angiospermic plants is known as double fertilization.
A gamete. It might be a bit too broad though. In animals the male gamete is always a sperm. In most flowering plants the male gamete is also called sperm.
The fertlized female gamete starts to develop a baby
A gamete is, by definition, a single cell.In animals a male gamete is called a spermatozoon (plural spermatozoa), or simply sperm or sperm cell. A female gamete is an ovum (pl ova), or unfertilized egg. (A fertilized egg is a zygote.)In lower plants, such as mosses and ferns, the male gamete may be called a sperm or an antherozoid.In flowering plants, the male gamete is a nucleus within the pollen grain.
The male gametes in most of the non-flowering plants are motile and these are carried to the female gamete by their own movement in presence of water.
It means having one gamete - either a female or a male gamete...
It means having one gamete - either a female or a male gamete...
well its a multiple step process. first, the male gamete hasta whoo the female gamete. second, dinner is offered. if all goes well, there is an opportunity for third base. aka, the dirty. THey make sloppy druken love for roughly two minutes and then pass out on a street corner. the end.
The female gamete is called an ovum or an egg. This is the cell that is fertilized by the male gamete known as the sperm.
