The answera are somatic and gametes respectively.

Somatic cells mean body cells. All the cells in your body except the ones for reproduction are called somatic cells. They have a complete set of chromosomes (with DNA) and they have different functions to the body.

They only have half of the chromosomes comparing to other somatic cells, since they need to fuse together and restore the correct amount of chromosomes during fertilization.
