monohybrid cross
Fertilization produces a single cell called a zygote. The zygote is formed when a sperm cell fuses with an egg cell during the process of fertilization, initiating the development of a new organism.
Embryo's are called fetuses after 8 weeks. The term zygotes is only used right after fertilization before cleavage occurs when the embryo is still a single cell.
mitosis is a process where somatic cells split. that means a single cell become two, two become four, four become eight, and so on. somatic cells are non reproductive cells, like muscle cells. for reproductive cells, like sperm, the same process called meiosis
The combining of an egg and sperm to create 1 single cell is "conception."

Lots and lots of cell division.
The egg is usually fertilized in the ampulla of the uterine (Fallopian) tube. It stays there for about 24 hours, waiting for a single sperm to fertilize it.

No. The reproductive cells (eggs, sperm, ova and pollen) all contain half the number of chromosomes of an organisms body cell. This means that at fertilization the two reproductive cells (or gametes) combine to form a single cell with the appropriate number of chromosomes.If a gamete had more chromosomes than a normal cell then fertilization would lead to even more chromosomes and an offspring that would be seriously genetically compromised.
They form a zygote. A zygote is a single cell with the full (diploid) complement of chromosomes. In the case of a multicellular organism the zygote will multiply into a mass of daughter cells called an embryo.
Embryo's are called fetuses after 8 weeks. The term zygotes is only used right after fertilization before cleavage occurs when the embryo is still a single cell.
In mitosis we have exact replica of cell. It means after fertilization of ovum by sperm, we get a single cell witch go on duplicating to provide entire human being. This occurs by the process of cell duplication called mitosis in all genetic material get duplicated in each cell. In meiosis, we have half of the genetic material. (Half chromosomes.) So during fertilization half chromosomes from father and half from mother unite to form what we called fertilized ovum.
