  1. gametocyte

    A gametocyte is a biological cell that is involved in sexual reproduction and has the potential to develop into a gamete. It is produced from a germ cell and undergoes meiosis to become a mature gamete, which can then participate in fertilization to form a new organism. The two main types of gametocytes in many species are spermatozoa (male) and oocytes (female). Gametocytes are particularly important in the life cycle of certain parasites, such as malaria.
