Fertilization. Egg and sperm cells have just 23 chromosomes each. That's half as many chromosomes as regular cells. Through the process of fertilization, egg and sperm join to make a cell with 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), called a zygote.

How do water and sunlight affect decomposers ?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

As the volume of available water increases, the rate of decomposition also increases. Many decomposers secrete enzymes onto decaying matter and then absorb any dissolved molecules and sunlight allows things to grow out of decomposers allowing faster decomposition from the plant absorbing the other nutrients from the things in the decomposer making the soil rich and fertile.
