A gamete (from Ancient Greek Î³Î±Î¼ÎµÏÎ® gamete from gamein to marry) is a cell that fuses with another cell during fertilization (conception) in organisms that sexually reproduce.
The cells from each parent that combine to form the zygote are called gametes. In humans, the male gamete is called sperm, and the female gamete is called an egg. When the gametes join they form a cell called a zygote. Human sperm and eggs contain 23 chromosomes. Human zygotes contain 46 chromosomes.
