Final answer:
Option (b, e), The gametes among the given cells are b. sperm and e. egg, which are male and female reproductive cells, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks which of the following cells are gametes. Gametes are mature haploid reproductive cells that are produced through a special type of cell division known as meiosis. They have half the amount of genetic material compared to regular body cells and are designed for sexual reproduction.
In humans, gametes contain one set of 23 chromosomes. The two types of gametes are sperm and egg, where sperm are produced by the male gonads (testes) and eggs are produced by the female gonads (ovaries).
In the options provided:
- b. Sperm - This is a gamete and the male reproductive cell.
- e. Egg - This is also a gamete and the female reproductive cell.
Therefore, the gametes among the options listed are sperm and egg.
