The zygote simply is the fertilized ovum or egg cell or female reproductive cell. It is the result of the process of fertilization of the fusion of the male reproductive cell (gamete) and the female reproductive cell ( gamete). In human, the zygote is the resulted cell of fertilization of the sperm and the ovum. It is diploid or 2N which means it contains two sets of chromosomes; one set from the male and the other from the female.

The gamete is the reproductive cell. There are two types of gametes; male gamete and female gamete. In human, the male gamete is called the sperm and the female gamete is called the ovum. The gamete is the last stage of the reproductive cells to be completely formed.

Fertilization is the fusion of the male gamete and the female gamete to form the zygote. Fertilization may be external as in fish or internal as in human.

How does the equation for cellular respiration compared with the equation for photosynthesis?
nignag [31]
In plants, photosynthesis, occurring in chloroplasts, is an anabolic (bond-building) process whereby CO2 and H2O combine with the use of light (photon) energy. This yields O2 and sugar (i.e. glucose). This occurs in 2 phases: light-dependent and dark (Calvin cycle) reactions, which both continually recycle ADP/ATP and NADP/NADPH.
The catabolic (bond-breaking) process in plants is cellular respiration, in which glucose is broken down with O2 by glycolysis (cytoplasm only) and mitochondrial reactions (Krebs cycle and E.T.C.) to yield CO2 and H2O. These reactions recycle ADP/ATP and NAD/NADH. The CO2 and water produced by cellular respiration feed into the photosynthetic processes, and in turn, the O2 and glucose resulting from photosynthesis supply the respiratory reactions.
