  • Plant Reproduction: Understanding Male & Female Gametes (Pollen & Egg)
    Here's the breakdown of the male and female sex cells in plants:

    * Male sex cell: Sperm or Pollen grain (which contains the sperm)

    * Female sex cell: Egg cell (also known as the ovum)

    Important Note: While both sperm and pollen grain are involved in fertilization, it's crucial to understand their distinct roles:

    * Pollen grain: The pollen grain is a protective outer layer containing the sperm cell.

    * Sperm cell: The sperm cell is the actual male gamete that fuses with the egg cell during fertilization.
