Correct Answer: Zygote


Solution : The correct answer is a Zygote .

During fertilisation in living beings, the fusion of male and female gametes occurs, resulting in the formation of a zygote. This single cell contains a complete set of genetic material, with half coming from each parent. The zygote undergoes cell division and development, eventually giving rise to an embryo, which further develops into a new individual of the species.
