Male or female. Soldered or screw on type.

is the broken one screw on, not all are, some are soldered.

it looks to be soldered on

You can try reconnect it, but it can be tricky: your antenna uses a coaxial cable, with a centre conductor surrounded by a shield. Each has to be re-connected properly and kept separate from each other. They connections need to be soldered.
I have had a car that had an extension to the lead, check for one.
