A zygote is a fertilized egg so it occurs at the beginning of gestation. If the zygote develops for around 340days the result will be the birth of a baby horse.


What are organisms called that mate to produce offspring?

They are called a cell or even a zygote.


What term defines those sex cells which unite to form a zygote or offspring?

fertilization occurs after the egg and sperm join together to make a zygote


What happens with zygote?

A Zygote is the cell formed when two gamete (or sex cells) are joined by sexual reproduction. The zygote develops into the baby. The zygote is only the initial stage of the development of the offspring. Usually, a zygote if formed by an ovum and sperm. The ovum being the female sex cell and the sperm being the male's.


Are offspring of gametes haploid or diploid?

Gametes are haploid. When two gametes unite during fertilization, they form a diploid zygote, genetically unique from either parent, and the first cell of the offspring. The zygote is not really considered an offspring of the gametes, but of the parent organisms that produced the gametes. For example, a human zygote is the first cell of a human baby formed when a sperm from a male and an ovum from a female unite during fertilization. The zygote and subsequent baby are the offspring of the mother and father.


What happens before birth?

before birth the zygote develops first into an embryo and the into a fetus


Only a diploid zygote can function as the offspring's first body celltrue or false?

True. A diploid zygote contains a full set of chromosomes, one set from each parent, and is formed through the fusion of two haploid gametes. This diploid zygote will then undergo mitosis to develop into the offspring's first body cell from which all subsequent cells will arise.


What forms when gametes fuse?

male and female gametes form a zygote which is an offspring from the sperm cell (father ) and egg cell (mother ) . a zygote ( child ) is what is formmed when there is a sexual intercourse between mother and father ( the egg and sperm cell fuse ! )


Because the zygote gets half of its gentic code from each gamete the human offspring?

results in the 46 chromosomes that we have?


Which sequence correctly depicts the development of offspring?

1.zygote 2.fetus 3.emryo 4.blastoclyst


When does offspring receive half its DNA from its parent?

This occurs when the sperm and egg met and a new individual begins as a zygote.
