Oocyte
The gametes are formed in the gonads, which also have hormonal functions. A gamete is a mature haploid male or female germ cell that is able to unite with another of the opposite sex in sexual reproduction to form a zygote.
germ cells
Meiosis produces eggs, called ova. Ova are produced in the ovaries.
Microspores and megaspores are produced by meiosis. In plants, microspores develop into male gametophytes (pollen), while megaspores develop into female gametophytes (embryo sacs). This process occurs in the reproductive structures of seed plants, where diploid sporophytes undergo meiosis to produce these haploid spores.
The four haploid cells formed in the male at the end of meiosis 2 develop a tail and are called spermatozoa or sperm cells. These cells are specialized for transmitting genetic material to the female during sexual reproduction.
Meiosis is the process by which haploid sex cells (sperm and egg cells) are produced. During meiosis, a single diploid cell undergoes two rounds of cell division to generate four haploid cells, each containing half the number of chromosomes of the original cell.
A gamete, also called a sex cell, is a haploid cell that participates in fertilization by fusing with another haploid cell.
The gametes are formed in the gonads, which also have hormonal functions. A gamete is a mature haploid male or female germ cell that is able to unite with another of the opposite sex in sexual reproduction to form a zygote.

Meiosis produces eggs, called ova. Ova are produced in the ovaries.
Meiosis in flowers takes place in the ovary within structures called ovules. Ovules undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes called eggs or female gametes. This process is essential for sexual reproduction in plants.
In a male, meiosis results in four haploid sperms and in a female it is one haploid egg cell
The four haploid cells formed in the male at the end of meiosis 2 develop a tail and are called spermatozoa or sperm cells. These cells are specialized for transmitting genetic material to the female during sexual reproduction.
When a female cell reproduces gametes, it forms one haploid gamete during each round of cell division. So from one diploid cell, two haploid gametes are produced after meiosis.
Yes, the sex organs in which gametes are produced are formed on gametophytes in plants. Gametophytes are the haploid phase of the plant life cycle, and they give rise to the male and female gametes through processes like mitosis and meiosis in specialized structures called gametangia.
A haploid female sex cell is an egg cell, also known as an ovum. It contains half the number of chromosomes found in a normal body cell and is produced through the process of meiosis in the ovaries. Upon fertilization by a sperm cell, the egg cell's haploid chromosome number combines with the sperm cell's haploid chromosome number to form a diploid zygote.
