Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In a process called fertilisation, the two gametes join and their chromosomes combine, so that the fertilised cell contains a normal complement of chromosomes, with some from each parent flower.
Detailed explanation-2: -Through the process of fertilization, egg and sperm join to make a cell with 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), called a zygote.
Detailed explanation-3: -The male gamete, or sperm, and the female gamete, the egg or ovum, meet in the female’s reproductive system. When sperm fertilizes (meets) an egg, this fertilized egg is called a zygote (pronounced: ZYE-goat). The zygote goes through a process of becoming an embryo and developing into a fetus.
