Your question is not really clear, but male and female sex cells are called "gametes".

Can eukaryotes be unicellular or multicellular?

Eukaryotes can be both unicellular and multicellular. Examples of unicellular eukaryotes include protists like amoebas and paramecia. Multicellular eukaryotes include plants, animals, and fungi.


What are the sexual reproductive cells in meiosis called?

Cells produced by meiosis are called daughter cells which contain one haploid of chromosomes. So, these cells are called haploid daughter cells.


What is an organism with one set of chromosomes?

An organism with one set of chromosomes is called haploid. Haploid organisms have half the usual number of chromosomes, meaning they have only one set of chromosomes instead of the usual two sets (diploid). Examples of haploid organisms include certain fungi, algae, and gametes (sperm and egg cells) in animals.


The chromosomes in the body?

Every cell in the body has chromosomes within a membrane bound organelle called the nucleus. There are 23 chromosomes total and all cells in the body (with a few exceptions) have two copies of each (one from mother and one from father). Exceptions to this include red blood cells (which have no nuclei) and gametes such as females' eggs and males' sperm which only contain one copy of chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are at the end of meiosis II?

A diploid organism have: 2n chromosome after meiosis 1, the gametes would still have 2n as DNA replication occured Meiosis 1 can be assumed to be the same process as Mitosis. after meiosis 2, the gametes would have n (1/2 of 2n), as the second meiosis would not include any form of DNA replication.


Do pigs use meiosis or mitosis?

Many organisms use mitosis and meiosis. Namely, all eukaryotes probably use mitosis and meiosis. Only bacteria (prokaryotes) would not divide by mitosis and have no mechanism for meiosis as their chromosomes differ from those of eukaryotes.But eukaryotes all have the capacity for mitosis and meiosis. Eukaryotes include all animals, plants, protists and fungi.Thus, since pigs are animals (and are thus eukaryotes), then indeed they have cells that divide by mitosis and meiosis. Their body cells (somatic cells) divide by mitosis (for growth and repair). Their gametes (sperm cells and ova) are produced by meiosis as these cells must be divided to a haploid form before copulation and fertilisation. Two haploid gametes would fuse (fertilisation) to restore the resulting cell (zygote) to a diploid form. The zygote grows into a new piglet via mitosis.


Is kingdom eukaryote unicellular?

No, kingdoms are broad classifications of organisms based on shared characteristics. Eukaryotes can be unicellular or multicellular. Examples of unicellular eukaryotes include protists, while multicellular eukaryotes include plants, animals, and fungi.


Four of the kingdoms incluede eukaryotes and the other two include?

Prokaryotes. Eukaryotes have nucleated cells, and include Fungi, Protists, Plants, and Animals. Prokaryotes do not have nuclei, they are the Bacteria and Archaea


Which cell has single set of chromosomes?

I'm assuming you mean 46 chromosomes. This is all cells. All cells have 46 chromosomes (the diploid number). Only gametes (sex cells, ie sperm and egg) have 23 chromosomes (sperm and egg meet to make a cell with 46 chromosomes). Cells dividing my meiosis (to produce gametes) have 92 chromosomes as they double up so they can half to get 2 cells with 46 chromosomes when they divide and therefore can produce the games with he haploid number (23)


Organism whose cells contain a nucleus?

Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells contain a nucleus. This organelle houses the genetic material of the cell and controls its activities. Examples of eukaryotes include plants, animals, fungi, and protists.


Is eukaryotes made of A cell or cells?

Eukaryotes include all animals, plants, and fungi. They also include some single celled organisms. All are made up of one cell or more.


What are 5 examples of eukaryotes?

Examples of eukaryotes include animals (such as humans), plants (such as trees), fungi (such as mushrooms), protists (such as amoebas), and algae (such as seaweed).
