Solution

The correct option is A True
A gonad or sex gland or reproductive gland is a mixed gland that produces the gametes (sex cells) and sex hormones in an organism. In female, the reproductive cells are the egg cells; and in males, the reproductive cells are the sperm. The male gonad, the testicle, produces sperm in the form of spermatozoa. The female gonad, the ovary, produces egg cells. Both of these gametes are haploid germ cells.
