Egg + sperm = zygote (fertilized egg)
As a hypothetical: zygote does not belong in that list.
The zygote being the result, the egg and the sperm being the starting process.
Alternate answer:
It could also be debated that the sperm does not belong on the list as the other two are eggs (one fertilized, one not).

∙ 11y agoim pretty sure that gamete is the one that does not belong because the zygote and the diploid are technically the same, a cell with 2 of each kind of chromosomes, a mix of 2 different cells. i would say gamete.

∙ 12y agoZygote because it has to do with fertilization of the egg...while the sperm and egg are both sex cells

What are the egg and the sperm cells called?
The cell formed after fertilization by sperm and egg is called a zygote. A zygote is a diploid cell, meaning a cell that has two sets of chromosomes (one from egg, one from sperm).
What is the purpose of fertilization?
When a sperm fuses with an egg in fertilization, the resulting zygote nucleus receives two complete sets of chromosomes, one set from the egg and one from the sperm.
What is polyspermy in humans?
Polyspermy is when more than one sperm penetrate one egg during conception. Normally, there are blocks to polyspermy because humans are generally monospermic - only one sperm and one egg can create a viable zygote. Thus, there are biological blocks to polyspermy in humans.
What is it called when the egg and sperm combine into one cell?
Well...first of all it is called fertilization. The actual baby at this very early stage is called a zygote.
How can a zygote end up with an extra chromosome?
how could a zygote end up with an extra chromosome Either the egg or the sperm doesn't divide equally.
What is the number of nuclei in a zygote?
a zygote is a fertilized egg. one that has formed by the fusion of an egg cell and a sperm cell
What are the egg and the sperm cells called?
The cell formed after fertilization by sperm and egg is called a zygote. A zygote is a diploid cell, meaning a cell that has two sets of chromosomes (one from egg, one from sperm).
Which of these forms after th production of zygote?
Two gametes (or haploid sex cells) from two different parents, one male and one female. Sperm and an egg come together to form a zygote.
What is the word that has the definition of one egg fertilized by one sperm divides?
Zygote
What is the purpose of fertilization?
When a sperm fuses with an egg in fertilization, the resulting zygote nucleus receives two complete sets of chromosomes, one set from the egg and one from the sperm.
What forms when two gametes join?
Provided one of the gametes is an egg and the other is a sperm, a Zygote is formed.
What is the one-cell structure that forms when a sperm and egg unite?
This is called the zygote. As it divides, it forms the embryo.
Does the reproductive system produce zygote?
One reproductive system alone does not produce a zygote. A human zygote is made from the joining of gametes (sperm and egg) from the male and female reproductive systems.
How many sperm cells can enter an egg cell?
Only one sperm fertilises an egg in normal cases, abnormally there are chances of fertilization by 2 or more sperm cells but such a zygote usually does not survive.
What fertilize the egg?
A fertilized egg is known as a zygote. Once fertilized the egg travels down the fallopian tubes to implant in the uterus, this takes around ten days and it's not until this point that a woman is considered to be pregnant. The zygote develops into an embryo, fetus, and then into a baby.
How many sperms unite with the egg and what do you call this union?
Only one sperm unite with the egg at a time and this process is called fertilization. A zygote is formed after this union which later on develops in to an embryo.
What is the name of merging one sperm and one egg?
The term for the joining of an egg and a sperm is fertilization.
