The risks that even small-time pot traffickers take to transport weed across Colorado state lines are increasing as law enforcement in neighboring states set up more border checkpoints, increase inspections of storage facilities and shipping containers and even take Colorado to court.
gamete. Gametes are an organism's reproductive cells. They are also referred to as sex cells. Female gametes are called ova or egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm. Gametes are haploid cells, and each cell carries only one copy of each chromosome. These reproductive cells are produced through a type of cell division called meiosis.
Cell division is a form of reproduction, but each resulting cell in normal cell division is identical to the original. Normal cell division is called mitosis, and this results in two identical cells. These cells continue life and perform the same functions as the original cell. They grow and eventually undergo division themselves. This is the type of division for most cells. The other type of cell division is called meiosis, and it is how the body produces eggs or sperm. The process is the same for both males and females.
