A zygote (/ ˈ z aɪ ˌ ɡ oʊ t /; from Ancient Greek ζυγωτός (zygōtós) ' joined, yoked ', from ζυγοῦν (zygoun) ' to join, to yoke ') [1] is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes.

2025年3月3日 · Zygote, fertilized egg cell that results from the union of a female gamete (egg, or ovum) with a male gamete (sperm). In the embryonic development of humans and other animals, the zygote stage is brief and is followed by cleavage, when the single cell becomes subdivided into smaller cells.

2024年10月15日 · A zygote is a single cell that’s the result of one egg and one sperm combining their genetic material, resulting in 23 pairs of chromosomes, says NIH. How Does a Zygote Form? When egg meets sperm (called fertilization), 23 chromosomes from the egg match up with 23 chromosomes from the sperm.

2017年4月28日 · A zygote is the cell formed when two gametes fuse during fertilization. The DNA material from the two cells is combined in the resulting zygote. The cellular mechanisms present in the gametes also function in the zygote, but the newly fused DNA produces a …

The meaning of ZYGOTE is a cell formed by the union of two gametes; broadly : the developing individual produced from such a cell.

Zygote is an international journal dedicated to the rapid publication of original research in early embryology. It covers interdisciplinary studies in animals and humans, from gametogenesis through fertilization to gastrulation.

2024年6月5日 · From fertilisation to birth we distinguish between zygote, embryo, foetus and baby. Specifically, the term embryo is used until the 8th week of gestation, after which it is called foetus until the baby is born.

2022年5月23日 · In biology, medical science, and other allied fields, including psychology, the term “zygote” is used to refer to a cell that forms after the union of sex cells (also called gametes). Reproduction by sexual means involves male and female gametes.

2020年10月21日 · A zygote is the first diploid cell that is formed by the fusion of male and female gametes resulting in the formation of an embryo. The zygote stage development occurs in the first week of fertilization.

2023年8月3日 · A zygote is the first diploid eukaryotic cell that resulted from the fusion of haploid gametes (sperm and an ovum) during sexual reproduction. It is the initial stage of an embryo from which a multicellular organism develops.
