A gamete is a specialized cell that contains half of the DNA of the parent organism. Since the structure of gametes for different species can vary considerably normal would be any gamete that
contains the correct amount of DNA and is capable of fertilization.
If sperm is used as an example, normal would be those sperm that have the correct amount of DNA, are progressively motile and have a morphology(form/structure) that will allow them to fertilize the egg once it is reached.
Normal gametes should contain one allele from each gene.
Haploid (?)
To exhibit monosomy in a zygote, one gamete must contribute only one copy of a chromosome instead of the normal two. Therefore, if one gamete has a missing chromosome (e.g., due to a nondisjunction event leading to a gamete with 22 chromosomes instead of 23), it will result in a zygote that has only one copy of that chromosome when fused with a normal haploid gamete. In summary, the gamete with the missing chromosome (monosomic) is responsible for the resulting zygote exhibiting monosomy.
Gametes carry half the number of normal chromosomes as a body cell. Since there are normally 46, this means there are 23 chromosomes in a human gamete.
Male gamete in flowers is pollen grain that produce in anther . When male gamete in animal is sperm that produce by testes
In the chrosome number
Normal gametes should contain one allele from each gene.

The male gamete - spermatozoon and the female gamete - ovum.
In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.
Human gametes have 23 chromosomes. (In cases of abnormality there may be a different number of chromosomes in a gamete).
There are 23 haploid chromosomes in a normal human gamete (sex cell).
There are 23 haploid chromosomes in a normal human gamete (sex cell).
A normal mouse gamete would have 19 autosomes.
Gametes carry half the number of normal chromosomes as a body cell. Since there are normally 46, this means there are 23 chromosomes in a human gamete.
