What else can I help you with?
Do all zygotes develop?
No, not all zygotes develop into embryos. Some zygotes may fail to implant in the uterus and are naturally lost during menstruation. Others may encounter genetic abnormalities that prevent further development.
Are zygotes capable of developing into a multicellular structure without fusion with another cell?
Yes they are, zygotes themselves are the product of fusion between two haploid gametes. These gametes fuse in order to develop into a multicellular structure, which they are unable to do unless they fuse. The product of their fusion is a zygote which is able to develop into a multicellular structure.
Why are trisomy zygotes more likely to survive than monosomy individuals?
Trisomy zygotes typically have an extra chromosome, providing an extra copy of genetic material which can compensate for any missing genes and help maintain normal cellular function. Monosomy individuals, on the other hand, lack one chromosome which can lead to more severe genetic abnormalities and developmental issues, making survival less likely.
What can occur after meiosis but not mitosis that ensures genetic variation?
There is a process that occurs during meiosis called genetic crossover. It occurs in zygotes (fertilized egg cells). When two double stranded homologous chromosomes (one from your mother and one from your father) bond, they form a a structure called a tetrad. When all of your mother and fathers chromosomes are matched up like this, the genes from both parents mix up. When they separate back into regular double stranded chromosomes, your parents DNA is mixed up with each other in different ways. This creates genetic variation.
What results in fertilization?
zygotes :)

Are zygotes haploid or diploid after fertilization?
After fertilization, zygotes are diploid.

How do jellyfish protect zygotes?
A jellyfish protects Zygotes by Stinging anything that will try to harm it
What are two restrictions that limit human genetic experiments?
# Ethics. The study may affect living volunteers or alter zygotes or embryos (developing human life) and therefore have legal and ethical ramifications. # Safety. Any change to existing human genetics may have the capability to alter the biosphere in a way that could harm living humans. Changes must be carefully designed and contained.
What do zygotes grow into?
embryo
Are zygotes diploid cells in the early stages of development?
Yes, zygotes are diploid cells in the early stages of development.
Are zygotes haploid or diploid during the early stages of development?
Zygotes are diploid during the early stages of development.

Are zygotes haploid or diploid?
Zygotes are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes (one set from each parent). This is because a zygote is formed by the fusion of a haploid egg cell and a haploid sperm cell during fertilization.
What results in fertilization?
zygotes :)
