c. An egg cell is larger than a sperm cell.
d. For both males and females, the amount of resources devoted to each gamete is affected by the size of the gamete.
e. For both males and females, the number of gametes they can produce in a breeding season is affected by the amount of resources they must devote to each gamete.
