The correct definition for "gamete" is:
**g. cells involved in fertilization**
Gametes are the reproductive cells (sperm and egg in animals) that unite during fertilization to form a new organism. They typically have one set of chromosomes (haploid), which is represented by option **h** as well, but the most precise choice that specifically defines "gamete" is option **g**.
