Gametocytes.
Cells that enter meiosis are typically germ cells, which are specialized cells in the body that give rise to eggs or sperm. These cells have the ability to divide and produce gametes through the process of meiosis.
Germ cells are the reproductive cells in living organisms . They are formed near the alimentary canal of an embryo and then goes to growing gonads where gametes are produced. In males, the gamete is the sperm and the gonad is the testes whereas in females the gamete if the egg or ovum and the gonad is the ovaries.
Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, have half the number of chromosomes found in somatic cells. Therefore, human gametes have 23 chromosomes each.
The male gametophyte in plants is located within the pollen grain. It is produced in the anther of the flower and is released during pollination to reach the female reproductive structures for fertilization.
Gametes are cells, in humans they contain 23 chromosomes. Body Cells (Properly Called: Somatic Cells) in humans contain 46 chromosomes (2 sets of 23). Some differences or problems can cause this number to change in specific humans, gametes, and somatic cells. Muscle cells may have hundreds of chromosomes, red blood cells have none.

In body cells, the number of gametes is typically half the number of chromosomes found in body cells. This reduction occurs during meiosis, where a diploid cell divides to form haploid gametes with half the number of chromosomes.
gametes
Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, have half the number of chromosomes found in somatic cells. Therefore, human gametes have 23 chromosomes each.
A gamete nucleus is the central part of a reproductive cell (gamete) that contains the genetic material (DNA) of an organism. In humans, gametes are sperm cells in males and egg cells in females, each containing half of the genetic information needed to create a new individual. During fertilization, the nuclei of a sperm cell and an egg cell fuse to form a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes.
Germinal epithelium refers to a layer of cells that gives rise to gametes (sperm and eggs) in the gonads. In males, it is found in the seminiferous tubules of the testes, where it is responsible for spermatogenesis. In females, it lines the ovarian follicles and is involved in oogenesis. This epithelium plays a crucial role in reproductive biology and the development of reproductive cells.
The male gametophyte in plants is located within the pollen grain. It is produced in the anther of the flower and is released during pollination to reach the female reproductive structures for fertilization.
In humans, all the somatic cells (body cells) are diploid. However, gametes (sex cells) such as sperm and egg cells are haploid. Gametes have half the amount of genetic material than which is found in somatic cells. These are the only human cells which are not diploid.
Gametes, or else eggs/sperm.
Gametes are cells, in humans they contain 23 chromosomes. Body Cells (Properly Called: Somatic Cells) in humans contain 46 chromosomes (2 sets of 23). Some differences or problems can cause this number to change in specific humans, gametes, and somatic cells. Muscle cells may have hundreds of chromosomes, red blood cells have none.
Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells in humans, contain half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body. This means that in humans, gametes have 23 chromosomes each, instead of the usual 46 chromosomes found in most body cells.
