Understand that gametes are formed through meiosis, where alleles segregate independently.
Identify the genotype given: \(aabbcc\). Each pair of alleles is homozygous, meaning there is no variation in alleles for each gene.
Recognize that homozygous alleles (\(aa\), \(bb\), \(cc\)) do not produce different combinations because there is only one type of allele for each gene.
Since all alleles are homozygous, the organism can only produce one type of gamete, \(abc\), as there are no alternative alleles to combine.
Conclude that the number of different types of gametes produced is 1, as there is no genetic variation in the genotype \(aabbcc\).
