As you may know, almost all our cells contain pairs of chromosomes - 23 pairs to be exact. These are called diploid. Haploid cells contain only one chromosome from each pair. Reproductive cells (both male and female) are haploid, so they can fuse and form a diploid cell with chromosomes from both the male and the female.
The female reproductive cell (which is haploid) is the ovum, or egg cell.
I got "egg", if that helps any.
The haploid cells are the sperm and egg cell.
Haploid sex cells formed in the female reproductive organs are called ova (or eggs). Ova are produced through a process called oogenesis in the ovaries. They are released during ovulation and can be fertilized by a sperm cell to form a zygote.
A female reproductive cell is called an ovum
In humans a male reproductive cell is the sperm, while the female reproductive cell is the egg.
Gametes are reproductive cells (sperm in males, eggs in females) that carry half the genetic material of an organism. During sexual reproduction, gametes fuse to form a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes.
They are used to get the haploid cells together.

Haploid cell has half of the normal number of chromosomes the reproductive cell has. Diploid cell refers when the cells has two alleles of a gene.
Haploid. A haploid cell contains one set of chromosomes (n), which is half the number of chromosomes found in a diploid cell. Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells like eggs and sperm.
