sex cells, like sperm or eggs in humans. They are normally haploid.
Internal fertilisation.
The gametophyte generation of fern plants is the haploid generation. It produces gametes (eggs and sperm) through mitosis. When the gametes fuse during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote that develops into the sporophyte generation.
Female gametes are called eggs or ova.
Sex cells are also called gametes. Each has 23 chromosomes or half the number of other cells.
The symbols used to represent gametes are sex cells in organisms; male gametes are represented by the symbol "sperm" (♂) and female gametes are represented by the symbol "egg" (♀).
In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.
When two gametes fuse during sexual reproduction, the single cell that forms is called a zygote. The gametes each have one set of chromosomes and are said to be haploid. When they fuse, they form the first diploid cell of the offspring, the zygote, which has two sets of chromosomes.
They are the sex cells. They are haploid cells.
Any plant that produces haploid gametes can be said to undergo sexual reproduction. The process involves the "joining" of two haploid gametes to form a diploid embryo (or zygote). Pretty much all plants that produce flowers (Angiosperms) or cones (Gymnosperms) produce pollen and eggs (which are the haploid gametes).
Gametes are produced through meiosis, not mitosis. Meiosis is the cell division process that specifically produces haploid cells such as gametes (egg and sperm cells) in organisms. Mitosis is a cell division process that produces identical diploid cells for growth and repair.
The human gametes are Male gametes are sperm and female gametes are eggs. And the gametes chromosome numbers are 42.

The gametophyte generation of fern plants is the haploid generation. It produces gametes (eggs and sperm) through mitosis. When the gametes fuse during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote that develops into the sporophyte generation.
Gametes are said to have homologous chromosomes, if they have same genes arranged in same order. During gamete formation meiosis precedes, therefore, individual gamete does not have its homologous counterpart. After fertilization, in diploid nucleus, homologous chromosomes are restored.
