Germ cells are different from somatic cells in a critical way. Whereas somatic cells are diploid, meaning they have two copies of each chromosome, germ cells are haploid. The haploid nature of germ cells is vital to the process of sexual reproduction. There are two different sex cells or gametes: sperm and eggs. Males produce sperm and females produce eggs.
