Question

what is a term for a reproductive cell

Answer 1

Gamete, I believe.

The eggs and sperm are the reproductive cells. Each mature reproductive cell is haploid in that it has a single set of 23 chromosomes containing half the usual DNA amount.

Reproductive cells are called as `Gametes` and other cells are called as `Somatic cells`

Haploid is the ploidy of gametes or reproductive cells. Somatic cells can be however both haploid and diploid.
