What are organisms that can mate and produce offspring?

Zygote


Are offspring of gametes haploid or diploid?

Gametes are haploid. When two gametes unite during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote, genetically unique from either parent, and the first cell of the offspring. The zygote is not really considered an offspring of the gametes, but of the parent organisms that produced the gametes. For example, a human zygote is the first cell of a human baby formed when a sperm from a male and an ovum from a female unite during fertilization. The zygote and subsequent baby are the offspring of the mother and father.

What happens with zygote?

A Zygote is the cell formed when two gamete (or sex cells) are joined by sexual reproduction. The zygote develops into the baby.

What happens before birth?

Do monozygotic twins have the same genotype and phenotype?

Monozygotic twins are two offspring that have identical DNA. This is because they arose from one zygote (hence monozygotic). Both of the offspring came from this zygote which at a particular time spilt. After the split, each individual had a copy of the original DNA


What forms when gametes fuse?

male and female gametes form a zygote which is an offspring from the sperm cell (father ) and egg cell (mother ) . a zygote ( child ) is what is formmed when there is a sexual intercourse between mother and father ( the egg and sperm cell fuse ! )


Because the zygote gets half of its gentic code from each gamete the human offspring?

results in the 46 chromosomes that we have?
