106 â A CHAPTER 4 Cell Reproduction Sexual Reproduction Another way that a new organism can be produced is by sex-ual reproduction. During sexual reproduction, two sex cells,sometimes called an egg and a sperm, come together. Sex cells,like those in Figure 9, are formed from cells in reproductiveorgans.Sperm are formed in the male reproductive organs. Eggs are formed in the female reproductive organs.The joiningof an egg and a sperm is called fertilization, and the cell thatforms is called a zygote (ZI goht).Generally, the egg and thesperm come from two different organisms of the same species.Following fertilization, mitosis and cell division begins.he joiningof an egg and a sperm is called fertilization, and the cell thatforms is called a zygote (ZI goht).

Spermatogenesis and Oogenesis. Meiosis, the process by which gametes are formed, can also be called gametogenesis, literally âcreation of gametes.â The specific type of meiosis that forms sperm is called spermatogenesis, while the formation of egg cells, or ova, is called oogenesis.
