First thing is Male gametes are called sperm and Female gametes are called eggs. So some physical differences are that the eggs are spherical in shape, much larger then sperm, and are immobile (they stay in the female reproductive organ during fertilization). Sperm are smaller, are in a cone shape, and have tails so the could move to the egg during fertilization.
A. off a surface at the same angle it strikes the surface
The correct answer is: C) the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes lines upat the metaphase plate during meiosis I
Independent assortment is the second Mendel’s law which states that the alleles of two/more different genes are sorted into gametes independently.
When homologous pairs line up during the metaphase at meiosis I they do that random. This means that formed gametes will get different combinations of "mom" and "dad" homologues and consequently, different alleles on those homologues.
I believe the term for two similar chromosomes would be homologous chromosomes.
