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.

Answer:

A zygote is a eukaryotic cell that is produced when two gametes fertilize each other. The genome of a zygote is made up of the DNA from each gamete and includes all of the genetic information needed to create a new person. The zygote is the most basic developmental stage of multicellular organisms.
