The male gamete ( sperm ) fertilizing the female gamete ( egg cell )
In biology , sexual reproduction is a process of combining and mixing genetic traits, often resulting in the specialization oforganismsinto amaleo... gametes are small, motile, and optimized to transport their genetic information over a distance, while female gametes are large, non-motile and contain the nutrients necessary for the early development of the young organism.
An organism's sex is defined by the gametes it produces: males produce male gametes (spermatozoa, or sperm ) while females produce female gametes ( ova , or egg cells); individual organisms which produce both male and female gametes are termed hermaphroditic . Frequently, physical differences are associated with the different sexes of an organism; these sexual dimorphisms can reflect the different reproductive pressures the sexes experience.

Khattak or Khatak ( Pashto : خټک [xaˈʈak] , Urdu : خٹک), is the name of an Afghan tribe belonging to the Karlan branch of the Afghans. The tribe’s history is quite ancient.One of the earliest references about them are found in the 4th century BCE in Media And Arachosia .They were called Sattagudai by Greek [1] and other historians. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] However, their origin is much more ancient.
The tribe’s territory is located in the Khyber Pukhtoonkhwa province of modern day Pakistan . However historical records showan earlier eastward migration from Herat , Ghowr and Ghazni .
The tribe is settled along the western bank of the river Indus from as north upwards as Sammah; modern day Lund Khwar & Sher Garh near Malakand to South through the district of Karak , a stretch of territory more than 200 miles long. Their historiccapitals are Akora Khattak , a town50 kilometres (31 miles) east of the provincial capital, Peshawar and Teri, Kohat .
Their historical centers include Herat , Ghowr , Ghazni , Zhob , Karak , Tirah and Wana .
For the most part of their history, the Khattak were united under one combined leader, referred to as Malak, which according to Khushal Khan Khattak is a continuation of the Bani Israel title of Malak (king). [8] [9]
However, the combined title of Malak is not used anymore, solely for the reason that there is no combined Malak of all the Northern and Southern clans.
Origin
According to Nimatullah’s 1620 work History of The Afghans , Khattaks are amongst the oldest of the Afghan tribes. [10] Their history has been closely knit with that of the Yusufzai Tribe from their first settlement around the mountains of Ghor and Ghazni [10] to present day East-Central and North-Eastern Pukhtunkhwa Province of Pakistan.

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind tosuffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say weend
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream— ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

For what it’s worth: it’s never toolate or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope youlive a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.
