The primary functions of the female gamete (egg or ovum) are fertilization by a male gamete (sperm) to create a new organism, containing half of the genetic material needed for reproduction, and supporting the development of the new embryo into a fetus within the uterus.
When two gametes fuse to make a zygote, cross bridges form between the DNA from the two gametes. During cell division, the two gametes then separate, with some of the parts of gamete 1 being transferred to gamete 2 and vice versa. This recombination allows genetic diversity to occur. A gamete with ABCDE alleles will therefore "recombine" with a gamete with FGHIJ alleles to make, for example, ABHDJ cells. The new sequence will be replicated in subsequent cells.
The male gamete is called sperm and the female gamete is called egg or ovum. When sperm fertilizes the egg, the result is a zygote, which is the initial stage of a new individual (embryo) with a complete set of genetic material from both parents.
a new baby is born......simple
Oogenesis produces an ovum (egg) as the female gamete.
The result of a male gamete fertilizing a female gamete is a zygote.
Yes, the ovum is the female gamete.
The female gamete is an egg or ovum. It is produced in the ovaries and is necessary for sexual reproduction when fertilized by a male gamete (sperm).

The fertlized female gamete starts to develop a baby
The female gamete is called an ovum or an egg. This is the cell that is fertilized by the male gamete known as the sperm.

ovum
The ovaries do not actually produce a female gamete each moth. The ovaries prepare a female gamete for fertilization every month.
The female gamete in a plant is found in the ovule. Female gametes are known as egg cells or ova.
The sex cells from each parent that combine to form a new offspring are called gametes. In humans, the male gamete is the sperm cell and the female gamete is the egg cell. When a sperm fertilizes an egg, it forms a zygote, which develops into a new organism.
