That depends upon the species that we are talking about. Fish have external fertilization, mammals have internal fertilization.

What kind of Gametes can father produce?

A female's gamete is called an egg cell (scientific name: ovum). It contains a random selection of the mother's alleles for each gene. During fertilisation, the egg cell and the male's gamete (the sperm cell) fuse, resulting in a complete set of genetic information, enabling the fertilised egg cell to develop into a baby.


WHAT is the name given to the process when the male and felmale sex cells fuse?

The process is called fertilization. This is when the sperm cell from the male fuses with the egg cell from the female to form a zygote.


How are humans created?

A male and female have sexual intercourse. The male releases sperm into a female vagina which will swim up into her oviduct.

What is . Fusing of a the nucleus of a male sex cell with the nucleus of a female sex cell?

The fusion of the nuclei of the sperm and the egg is called fertilization. This will then form a zygote and, eventually, a new organism with genetic information from both the egg and the sperm.


What are the differences between male sperm and female sperm in terms of their characteristics and functions?

Male sperm, or sperm cells produced by males, are smaller and more numerous than female sperm, or egg cells produced by females. Male sperm carry genetic material from the father and are responsible for fertilizing the female egg. Female sperm, on the other hand, contain genetic material from the mother and are larger in size. The main function of female sperm is to fuse with male sperm during fertilization to create a new organism.
