Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
the chromosome number of the egg and and sperm are halved ,and are then joined together. the fusion of the the nucleus of the haploid male gamete with the haploid female gamete is referred to as fertization and the product of fertilization is zygote.
The diploid single zygote then divides repeatedly and develops to produce the offspring whose somatic cells are diploid.The zygote is the initial stage in baby development. It is also known as a fertilized ovum formed from the union of the sperm cell and the egg cell. Foetus refers to the final stage in baby development.
