Solution
Homogametic:
It is a condition where identical gametes are formed.
The sex chromosomes are holomorphic.
Females are one such example of Homogametic as they contain two X chromosomes.
Homogamy is used to define the organism.
Males on the other hand are heterogametic, i.e., they contain two different gametes (XY).
