B
internal fertilization
C
pollination
D
fertilization
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell, the nuclei of the two cells combine. A new cell with a complete set of genetic information is produced – one half is from the mother, and the other half is from the father. The fertilized egg cell can now start developing into a baby.

Detailed explanation-2: -The fusion of male and female gamete is known as fertilization. The male gamete is known as sperm and the female gamete is known as ovum. The sperm and ovum fuses to form zygote. The cells of zygote undergo rapid cleavage to form large number of cells which forms germ layers. The germ layers forms different organs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Through the process of fertilization, egg and sperm join to make a cell with 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), called a zygote.

Detailed explanation-4: -During a process called fertilization, an egg cell and a sperm cell join together. The new cell that forms is called a(n) zygote.
