Best Answer

The zygote results from the combination of gametes (sperm and egg) during fertilization. The zygote undergoes mitosis after this, so that it can divide and grow into an organism.

Animal zygotes divide to form more cells. The zygote divides itself many times by mitosis until an embryo is formed.

What is the order of fertilization sex cells meiosis zygote mitosis?

The order would be: Meiosis -> sex cells -> fertilization -> zygote -> mitosis Meiosis creates sex cells, called gametes, which combine during fertilization to create a zygote. The zygote then undergoes mitosis.


What type of cell division is occuring as the zygote begins to divide?

The zygote is dividing via mitosis.


What divided in mitosis?

The zygote.


Where is a zygote formed?

The zygote, which is a fertilized egg, grows to maturity in the uterus.


What process allows a single celled zygote to develop into a multicellular organism?

The zygote becomes a multicellular organism by means of cell division and differentiation.


Does the actual egg die after fertilization so that meiosis can begin?

Meiosis precedes fertilization so maybe you mean mitosis. A fertilized egg does not die but becomes known as a zygote. The zygote spends roughly a half hour as a single cell before mitosis begins.


What is the process of somatic cells dividing into two diploid cells?

Mitosis. Zygote always divide by Mitosis


What are the development of zygote?

zygote divides by mitosis as it travels along the oviduct to the uterus where implantation takes place. The zygote developes into embryo and placenta


Which process forms a zygote?

The process that forms a zygote is called fertilization.


What would happen if the gametes forming a zygote are haploid?

If a haploid cell would attempt to perform meiosis it would split in to two cells. This process is called mitosis.
