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.
Gametes from both parents combine during fertilization to form a zygote, which eventually develops into an offspring through cell division and differentiation. The genetic material from both gametes is passed down to the offspring, determining its unique characteristics.

When the offspring are intermediate between the two parents it is called?
When the offspring are intermediate between the two parents, it is called incomplete dominance. This means that neither trait is dominant over the other, resulting in a blend of the two traits in the offspring.
What creates a variety in the offspring?
Genetic recombination during crossing over in prophase I of meiosis.
When are both alleles expressed in offspring?
Both alleles are expressed in offspring when neither allele is dominant over the other, resulting in co-dominance. This means that both alleles are simultaneously expressed in the offspring's phenotype.
What does crossing-over produce in the offspring?
Crossing-over produces genetic variation in the offspring by shuffling segments of DNA between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. This process results in new combinations of genes that can lead to different traits and characteristics in the offspring.
What happenswhen a species over produce offspring?
The population will diminish. Extinction will occur if insufficient reproduction continues long enough.
Which type of cellular division forms gamates?
Meiosis
Meiosis occurs only in the formation of?
Meiosis occurs only in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells) in sexually reproducing organisms. It is essential for producing haploid cells with half the genetic material to ensure genetic variability in offspring.
Why yeast is reproduce by budding?
because when two gamates will be damage it will be testes and penish.
Is yeast reproduced by budding?
because when two gamates will be damage it will be testes and penish.
Are most cells in the body diploid?
Yes, all the cells except gamates are diploid.
In humans how many chromosomes are in a cell?
46 chromosomes in somatic cells and 23 in gamates
A fertilized ovum is also called?
dick in your mouthThe egg cell or gamates.
What song has these lyrics now dance now dance you never had a chance?
The song is.... Your Gona Go Far Kid - The Offspring The song is.... Your Gona Go Far Kid - The Offspring
How many offspring babies does a osprey have?
OVER 100,000
What happens when a species over produces offspring?
they become over populated and the population declines
What happens when species over produce offspring?
they become over populated and the population declines
What is the nucleic acid that is passes over from parent to offspring?
DNA
