Answer:
I started out as glucose, got converted to pyruvate, after which I got oxidised by Oxygen to become CO2
Explanation:
My name is CO2, and I started out as glucose from pure honey. I got eaten by a little child when I was two weeks old, and I had to go through the dreadful process of aerobic respiration in the child's body.
My glucose molecules were broken down into pyruvate, and I stayed that way for a while, as I made my way to the mitochondria of the child's cells. Once I got to the mitochondria, I met my old friend oxygen, who reacted with me to turn me into the molecule I am today - C02.
If you want to know how I escaped the child's body, that's easy - I simply snuck out his nose while he was breathing one cold dark night.
<span>Only one sperm normally fuses
with an egg because if more than one sperm fuses, through a process
called polyspermy, development of the zygote usually stops.

<span>Fertilization of one egg by
two sperm is possible, but the resulting zygote is almost never viable
because such a zygote would have three sets of chromosomes instead of
the normal two. This condition, called triploidy, is usually
incompatible with life. Those rare triploid infants that do survive to
term have severe and multiple birth defects and rarely live more than a
few days. </span>
