What is fertilization in biology?

Answer 1

Depends on the species. In the most general terms, fertilization occurs when two sex cells (usually sperm and egg) join in some manner and form a new organism.

Unless you are talking about fertilizing your lawn? Then the process is to take some nitrogen and potassium and spread it over the lawn so that it grows faster.

Answer 2

Fertilization is in sexual reproduction (as apposed to asexual)when the fusion of to gametes(n), such a s a aperm and an egg, form a zygote(2n) which is capable of maturing into an adult individual of that species?

Answer 3

The fertilization coordinate sequence of molecular and cellular process which begins with contact of oocyte and sperm and ends with the intermingling of maternal and paternal chromosome and metaphase of mitotic I division of the zygote

Answer 4

Non examples? You mean everything that is not fertilization? How about dropping your false teeth in a glass of water. Putting a pencil in a jar. Dropping nails on the desert floor. Sending a rocket to the moon. Reading a book. There's a lot of things, you know.

Answer 5

Fertilization in Biology is the process where a sperm cell fuses with an egg cell to form a zygote. This zygote contains the full set of chromosomes (half from each parent) and is the initial stage of development for a new organism. Fertilization typically occurs in sexual reproduction to produce offspring.

Answer 6

Among others, mammals (including humans), birds, reptiles, and many insects, reproduce through internal fertilization.

Answer 7

Reproduction.

Male sperm meeting with a female egg through ejaculation into vaginal reproductive area.
