The 32 pages that link to Gamete, each with the reason it gives.

• FertilizationNarrower topic: Sperm and eggs are the two gametes that unite in fertilization.

• ZygoteNarrower topic: A zygote forms when two gametes unite.

• SporeCompared with: Spores grow without fusion; gametes ordinarily contribute to a zygote by fusing.

• Asexual reproductionNarrower topic: Asexual reproduction is defined by producing offspring without gamete fusion.

• Sexual reproductionBroader topic: These specialized cells carry the parental genetic contributions that reproduction combines.

• GametophyteBroader topic: Gametes are the reproductive cells produced by the gametophyte.

• Alternation of generationsRelated: Gametes unite to connect the haploid gametophyte to the diploid stage.

• External fertilizationNarrower topic: Sperm and eggs are the cells released to unite during external fertilization.

• HaploidBroader topic: Eggs and sperm are haploid in many animals.

• HermaphroditismNarrower topic: Hermaphroditic structures produce one or both kinds of gametes.

• DiploidRelated: Gametes are usually haploid, supplying one chromosome set apiece.

• Internal fertilizationNarrower topic: Sperm and eggs are the cells that unite during fertilization.

• Reproductive systemBroader topic: Gametes are the cells the reproductive system produces for sexual reproduction.

• SpawningNarrower topic: Spawning releases the eggs and sperm that serve as gametes.

• FertilityNarrower topic: Fertility depends on producing viable reproductive cells.

• Sex determinationRelated: Gamete type is one biological dimension associated with sex, distinct from developmental pathway.

• SpermatozoonNarrower topic: Spermatozoa are male gametes, paired with eggs in sexual reproduction.

• Plant life cycleRelated: Plant gametes unite to form the diploid zygote.

• SpermatophoreNarrower topic: Sperm inside spermatophores are one kind of gamete.

• ZoosporeCompared with: Unlike a gamete, a zoospore can develop without fusing with another cell.

• Independent assortmentBroader topic: Independent assortment shapes the combinations of alleles carried by each gamete.

• PloidyRelated: Gametes usually carry one chromosome set in diploid life cycles.

• Biological sexRelated: The size and type of gametes provide a reproductive definition of sex in many species.

• OogamyRelated: Understanding gametes clarifies what differs in size and movement between the sexes.

• Germ cellBroader topic: Gametes are the differentiated products germ cells ultimately produce.

• MaleNarrower topic: Male sex is defined in many species by producing one class of gametes.

• Reproduction (biology)Broader topic: Gametes are the cells that unite in sexual reproduction.

• Human reproductive systemNarrower topic: Eggs and sperm are the cells this system produces for reproduction.

• CopulationNarrower topic: Sperm transfer matters because gametes combine to produce offspring.

• MatingNarrower topic: Mating enables gametes to meet or be transferred between organisms.

• Animal sexual behaviourRelated: Gametes explain the reproductive function of mating in many animals.

• Sex organRelated: Gametes are the products whose production defines one major role of sex organs.
