You divide the number of chromosomes in half, just like humans. So the female zygote has 28 chromosomes and the male sperm have 28 chromosomes. This way each set of chromosomes contributes the same amount to each sex cell.

The right answer is The zygote has 56 chromosomes, 28 inherited from the mother and 28 from the father.

In diploid organisms such as mammals, each individual has two copies of each gene, one from the mother and the other from the father (exception: sex chromosome genes). If these two versions are identical, the individual is said to be homozygous for the gene considered. In the opposite case, it has two different versions (two different alleles), and it is heterozygous for this gene.

Answer:

1) Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same in size and shape and control the same characteristics; occur in pairs in higher animals and plants

2) Internal fertilization is a mating pattern in which the male and female come close together, the male introduces the sperm into the body of the female, and fertilization occurs. It is practiced by mammals like goat, sheep etc

3) Pollination is the transfer of pollen from male to female cones in gymnosperms, or from anther to stigma in flowering plants. It is effected by insects, birds, bats and the wind.

4) Zygote is the result of fertilization in which two gametes have fused together; often simply called a fertilized egg.
