Detailed explanation-1: -Through fertilization, the egg and sperm are saved: the egg is activated to begin its developmental program, and the haploid nuclei of the two gametes come together to form the genome of a new diploid organism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fertilization is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. The egg and sperm are haploid, which means they each contain one set of chromosomes; upon fertilization, they will combine their genetic material to form a zygote that is diploid, having two sets of chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-3: -During the double-fertilization event, one sperm cell fuses with the egg cell, forming the embryo, and a second sperm cell fertilizes the central cell, which develops into the endosperm.
