The macrogamete is similar to the ovum of higher animal groups and larger than the male sex cell.A cell that undergoes meiosis to form mature female sex cells (macrogametes) of the malarial parasite (Plasmodium). Macrogametocytes are found in the blood of man but must be ingested by a mosquito before developing into macrogametes.A large immobile reproductive cell formed in certain protozoa and simple plants. It corresponds to the ovum in higher forms.
