Ectocarpus siliculosus, female gamete surrounded by male gametes.
In flowering plants, anther s produce pollen which contains male gametes, and the embryo sac within the ovary contains a female gamete.
This is the first time that the UK government has put resources behind a national program to recruit gamete donors.
In addition, 60 units could also represent a gamete about to divide to form 2 gametes.
Similarly, other fertility techniques such as gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) are also more likely to result in multiple gestations.
