fertilisation takes place in ampulla of uterine tube
A fertilized cell is when a mature ovum (egg) is fertilized by a sperm. It becomes a fertilized cell. The sperm enters the ovum and the tail drops off. Then mitosis occurs and the cell continues to develop.
The fertilized ovum, or zygote, contains 46 chromosomes. These come from the combination of 23 chromosomes from the egg cell and 23 chromosomes from the sperm cell.
Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell and an ovum fuse, resulting in a fertilized egg.
The exact number of egg cells that can be fertilized is exactly the same as the number of egg cells that are available. For example, in a salmon, about 7,000,000. In a human, normally one, occasionally two to three, rarely up to five and very, very rarely up to seven. Just because they 'can be' fertilized though does not mean that they 'will be' fertilized!
Fertilization is the short answer. This process results in a fertilized egg known as a zygote.
An unfertilized egg is called an ovum. It is a mature female reproductive cell that has not been fertilized by a sperm cell.

A Female ovum and a Male sperm fuse to create a zygote cell. It is the earliest developmental stage of the embryo.
The female gamete is called an ovum or an egg. This is the cell that is fertilized by the male gamete known as the sperm.
Fertilization is the process when the sperm cell penetrates the egg cell, resulting in the combination of their genetic material to form a new cell known as a zygote.
Ovum has a layer of zona pellucida around itself. When a sperm enters the ovum, the cortical granules present in the ovum, causes the thickening of the zona pellucida. This prevents the entry of other sperms in the ovum and only one sperm is able to fertilize the egg.
Sperm cells fertilize the ovum, they are not fertilized. The primary reason for how the term is used is because most sperm compete to reach and penetrate the egg.
