Examples of zygote
zygote
A zygote also has many characteristics NOT in common with a living, born person.

This zygote divides and multiplies into an embryo and later, a full human being.

The eight-cell zygote, by then, knows no pain, hunger, fear, terror or anguish.
From the kentucky.com
A zygote can never develop into a human being without its external environment.

The people who will solve our problems may not even reached the zygote stage yet.

This process ultimately leads to the formation of a diploid cell called a zygote.
From the en.wikipedia.org
At this point, the zygote becomes a blastocyst and the placenta starts to form.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A zygote is formed after fertilization, which grows into a new sporophytic plant.

The question asked in this referendum was whether or not a zygote is a person.

- A zygote (from Greek u03B6u03C5u03B3u03C9u03C4u03CCu03C2 zygu014Dtos "joined" or "yoked", from u03B6u03C5u03B3u03BFu1FE6u03BD zygoun "to join" or "to yoke"), is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes. The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage...
- Zygote is the debut solo album by musician John Popper of the American jam band Blues Traveler. Produced by Terry Manning, it was released on 1999-09-07, less than a month after Popper lost a good friend and fellow bandmember, Bobby Sheehan. ...
- A fertilized egg cell
- The fertilized egg; identified by the presence of two pronuclei containing genetic material from the male and the female.
- A fertilized egg. A zygote has a complete set of chromosomes and a sex, but has not yet implanted in the uterine cavity.
- A diploid cell formed as a result of fusion of two haploid nuclei during sexual reproduction.
- The cell resulting after fertilization of the oocyte by the sperm. Visible in the laboratory 1 day after egg retrieval.
- The cell resulting from the fusion of male and female gametes during sexual reproduction. Subsequent cell divisions and differentiation result in the production of the embryo
