Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell from a male successfully penetrates and merges with an egg cell (ovum) from a female. This union forms a single cell called a zygote, which contains a complete set of genetic material—half from the sperm and half from the egg. The zygote then undergoes multiple divisions and developmental processes, eventually leading to the formation of an embryo.
