Definition
A chemical substance produced by male gametes (sperm cells) that attracts female gametes (egg cells) during reproduction.
Etymology
From Greek 'andro-' (male) + 'gamos' (marriage/union) + '-one' (chemical suffix). The term was coined in the early 20th century to describe pheromone-like substances that facilitate sexual attraction between gametes.
Kelly Says
This word reveals that even at the cellular level, sex cells engage in chemical "flirting"—sperm release androgamones to make eggs "notice" them, which is basically nature's oldest pickup line.
