Gametes, also known as sex cells or reproductive cells. In animals, these are the sperm and ova, in plants the pollen and ovules. In asexual reproduction, known as agamogenesis, reproduction is generally by mitosis, or division.
no
The opposite of male germ cell is female germ cell.
Females have a fixed total germ cell potential at birth, whereas males continuously produce germ cells throughout their lives. Females have all their germ cells present at birth, while males produce new germ cells through the process of spermatogenesis.
in animal male produce sperm(male gametes) and female produce ova(female gametes).these gametes are produces in a their reproductive organs.therefore those cells which produces these gametes are called germ cells.they are haploid.when fertilization occur then formation of zygote take place
Pollen grains contain germ cells (sperm cells) that are essential for fertilizing the egg cell in the ovule of a flower, leading to seed production. The germ cells are the male gametes that are responsible for the sexual reproduction of plants.

The name for female meiosis is oogenesis. It is the process by which female germ cells differentiate into mature eggs.
Germ cells
Germ cells divide by meosis. In the mammalian system, female germ cells are called Ove and male germ cells are called Sperm. There are two meotic divisions. At the end of the second meotic division, each daughter cell contains 'n' number of chromosomes, where n is the haploid number.

Germ cells (sperm and egg cells) allow mutations to be passed onto offspring. These cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes containing genetic material that can be inherited by the next generation. Mutations occurring in germ cells can therefore be transmitted to offspring.
