Explanation
In most animals, gametes are dissimilar (anisogamous), but the pattern is the reverse of what is stated here: eggs are typically large, nutrient-rich cells, while sperm are small and highly motile — making the description of 'large sperm and small egg' an inaccurate characteristic of Kingdom Animalia.
