Solution

The correct option is D A: Zygote
B: Embryo
C: Uterus
Zygote is the single celled structure. It is formed by the fusion of the male gamete (sperm) and the female gamete (ovum). Zygote undergoes many divisions and develops into an embryo. It is a multicelled structure. Embryo gets embedded in the walls of the uterus for further development.
