Are gametes in fish?

Yes, fish produce gametes as part of their reproductive process. Fish gametes include eggs produced by the female and sperm produced by the male, which combine during fertilization to form a new individual.


What is the posh name for sex cells?

The posh name for sex cells is "gametes." In humans and many other organisms, there are two types of gametes: sperm, which are male gametes, and ova (or eggs), which are female gametes. These cells are crucial for sexual reproduction, as they combine during fertilization to form a new organism.


How do gamates go to the over to offspring?

Gametes are individual DNA strands that all have a pair. In a human, the male has 23 in each sperm cell, and the woman has 23 in each egg cell. When the sperm and egg cell combine, the gametes combine and form matching pairs (not genetically identical) and then a zygote forms. The gametes are what makes up the genetical information of the zygote, which will eventualy grow inot a newborn. These gametes confirm what gender the baby will be, what they will look like ect. These gametes can also pass on disease - for example, a gamete with a mutation that causes down's syndrome.


Gametangia are produced by gametes?

Actually, gametangia are structures where gametes are produced, not the gametes themselves. Gametes are the actual reproductive cells like sperm and eggs that combine during fertilization. Gametangia are specialized structures found in some organisms like fungi, algae, and plants, where the gametes are formed and protected until they are ready to be released for fertilization.


Gametes must be haploid because?

they need to combine during fertilization to restore the diploid number of chromosomes in the offspring. Having haploid gametes ensures that the resulting zygote has the correct number of chromosomes for normal development.

How are gametes formed?


Why do gametes need 12 the number of chromosomes of a regular body cell?

Gametes require half the number of chromosomes of a somatic (regular) cell as gametes are the sex cells. When gametes combine to make a zygote (a fertilised cell), the complete number of chromosomes will be present.


What would happen if the chromosome number were not reduced during meiosis?

If the chromosome number were not reduced during meiosis, the resulting gametes would have double the normal number of chromosomes. This would lead to an imbalance in the genetic material when the gametes combine during fertilization, resulting in genetic abnormalities and potentially nonviable offspring.


Are gametes in fish?

Yes, fish produce gametes as part of their reproductive process. Fish gametes include eggs produced by the female and sperm produced by the male, which combine during fertilization to form a new individual.


Do germ Cells create Life when they combine?

Two gametes conjoining produce a living zygote; the Answer is yes, they do.


What age does baby estabilish eye color?

The moment the Gametes combine and a somatic cell is formed, in simpler words the moment the egg combines with the sperm and the chromosomes combine.

What do haploid gametes form?

two haploid gametes fuse to produce a zygote which develops into a diploid sporophyte. <3, Katie:)


What does the gametophyte stage of a moss or fern life cycle produce?

The gametophyte stage of a moss or fern life cycle produces gametes (eggs and sperm) through mitosis. These gametes combine during fertilization to form a diploid zygote, which develops into the sporophyte stage.
