Then, the process of becoming pregnant takes several days â the fertilized egg (now called a blastocyst) has only just begun its long journey. Once the egg is fertilized, it now has to travel all the way up into the uterus for implantation to take place.
The male gametes are called sperm cells, and the female gametes are called egg cells (ova). During mating, the sperm cell and the egg cell unite to form a fertilized combination of cells called a zygote. This zygote is the first of many cells of a new individual.This zygote will begin to divide into two cells and this continues to be repeated over and over resulting in the development of an embryo.ametes unite to produce a zygote, which then develops into an embryo. This usually happens inside a seed, protecting the embryo and providing food (cotyledon) for the embryo when growing conditions are right. Plants which are produced, as a result of cross-fertilization, are not identical to either plant.
