_____ are reproductive cells that pass along genes
gametes
Gametes are reproductive cells that pass along genes. These cells are typically either sperm (produced by males) or eggs (produced by females) and are responsible for transmitting genetic information from parents to offspring during the process of sexual reproduction. Each gamete contains half of the genetic information of its parent, so that when two gametes combine, their genetic material combines to form a unique set of genes in the offspring. This is how genetic diversity is generated in sexually reproducing organisms.
