How many gamete types do heterozygous females produce with respect to a gene?
Heterozygous females produce two types of gametes with respect to a given gene. If we denote the alleles as A (dominant) and a (recessive), the gametes produced will be either A or a. This results from the segregation of alleles during meiosis, where each gamete receives one allele from the pair.
Why male produce three type of gametes?
Males produce only one type of gamete - the sperm cell, or spermatozoon.
Why male is called heterogametic?
Male is called heterogametic because they produce two different types of gametes (sperm), carrying either an X or a Y chromosome. In humans, males are XY, which means they determine the sex of the offspring. On the other hand, females are homogametic, as they produce only one type of gamete (eggs) carrying an X chromosome.
What part of the body produces gametes?
While a man continues making new sperm his entire life, a woman is born with all the ova she will ever have. Each cycle several ova are incapsulated in follicles - the first one to mature or ripen will burst from the follicle - this is called ovulation.
Which cell contains only one sex chromosome?

A homozygous dominant parent will produce a gamete with?
They will produce gametes that are also homozygous.
Why male produce three type of gametes?
Males produce only one type of gamete - the sperm cell, or spermatozoon.
What does meiosis produce in gamete?
Meiosis produces gametes which have only one set of chromosomes for that species.
Do humans produce millions of eggs?
Females only produce one or two eggs, males produce many sperm.
Can a male produce sperm with either an x or y chromosome?
yes. the sperm is the gamete produced by a male and in most cases contributes only one of the alleles (either x or y). males are XY, females XX. again, in the usual case.
How many gametes are formed from one female germ cell?
Meiosis produces 4 genetically identical cells. However, in females, this only results in one gamete (called an ovum or egg) and 3 polar bodies which are smaller than the ovum.(In mammals one of the polar bodies usually disintergrates before division, in which case there would only be 2 polar bodies).
Does a gamete only receive one allele or another from a pair?
A gamete receives one of two genes from one parent and one of two genes from the other parent.
Why male is called heterogametic?
Male is called heterogametic because they produce two different types of gametes (sperm), carrying either an X or a Y chromosome.

What reproductive organ produces gametes?
Both male and female organisms produce only one type of gamete. The female gamete is the ovum (or egg) and the male gamete is sperm. Both gametes fuse together at the first stage of fertilization.
What is the human male gamete called?
The male gamete is a sperm. The female gamete is an ova or egg.
