Archegonia
Structures in plants that produce gametes are called gametangia. In ferns and mosses, the male gametangia are called antheridia, while the female gametangia are called archegonia. In flowering plants, the male gametangia are the pollen grains produced in the anthers, and the female gametangia are the ovules contained in the ovary.
Gametangia are specialized structures in certain plants, fungi, and algae where gametes are produced and often protected. In plants, male gametangia are called antheridia, which produce sperm, while female gametangia are called archegonia, which produce eggs. These structures help facilitate sexual reproduction by ensuring the gametes are produced in a safe environment and can be effectively transported for fertilization.

Moss egg cells, also known as archegonia, are produced in the reproductive structures called gametangia, which are located at the tips of the gametophyte plant body. These gametangia develop on the female moss plants, and each gametangium contains an egg cell.
Only in those cases where spores are not differentiated into micro- & megaspores for developing the gametophytes. Thus homosporous vascular plants produce archegonia and antheridia on same gametophyte.
The reproductive structures of bryophytes are called gametangia. These structures produce the gametes (sperm and egg) necessary for sexual reproduction in bryophytes. Gametangia are typically found at the tips of the gametophyte plant.
The two hyphae involved in sexual reproduction in fungi are known as the (+) or male hyphae and the (-) or female hyphae. These hyphae contain opposite mating types and are involved in the fusion process to form a zygote.

Actually, gametangia are structures where gametes are produced, not the gametes themselves. Gametes are the actual reproductive cells like sperm and eggs that combine during fertilization. Gametangia are specialized structures found in some organisms like fungi, algae, and plants, where the gametes are formed and protected until they are ready to be released for fertilization.
