and other name for gamete is umbilical
The male gamete is called a sperm cell. A uniflagellar sperm cell that is motile is referred to as a spermatozoon, whereas a non-motile sperm cell is called a spermatium. The female gamete is called an egg cell. They are also known as ova (singlular = ovum).
A haploid reproductive cell that unites with another haploid reproductive cell to form a zygote.The term is used for egg and sperm cells also pollen. They have half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body (23 individual chromosomes for human.) The name derives from the Greek gamete, meaning wife, and gametes, husband, both from gamein, to marry.
singular= Gamete plural= Gametes
A female's gamete is called an egg cell (scientific name: ovum). It contains a random selection of the mother's alleles for each gene. During fertilisation, the egg cell and the male's gamete (the sperm cell) fuse, resulting in a complete set of genetic information, enabling the fertilised egg cell to develop into a baby.
The gamete produced by the ovaries is called the ovum, or egg cell. Each ovum is released during the process of ovulation and can be fertilized by a sperm cell to form a zygote, which may develop into an embryo. In females, typically one ovum is released per menstrual cycle.
Gamete (a male or female sex cell ie the egg or the sperm)
Sperm cell
From the testis' epididymus it is called the vas deferens. Through the corpus spongiosum to the outside it is called the urethra, which also channels urine from the bladder. The tiny tubelets where spermatogenesis occurs in the testis are called seminiferous tubules.
The male gamete is called a sperm cell. A uniflagellar sperm cell that is motile is referred to as a spermatozoon, whereas a non-motile sperm cell is called a spermatium. The female gamete is called an egg cell. They are also known as ova (singlular = ovum).

A Sperm Cell as in most mammals like humans.
A haploid reproductive cell that unites with another haploid reproductive cell to form a zygote.The term is used for egg and sperm cells also pollen. They have half the number of chromosomes compared to other cells in the body (23 individual chromosomes for human.)

A haploid cell, or a gamete. It's also referred to as n.

The proper scientific name for a reproductive/sex cell is a gamete.
