What is a gamete?

1 answer

A gamete is a specialized reproductive cell that is used to carry genetic information from one generation to the next during sexual reproduction. In animals, gametes are typically sperm cells in males and egg cells in females. Gametes are haploid, meaning they contain only one set of chromosomes, and they fuse during fertilization to create a zygote, which develops into a new organism.
