Solution
The correct option is C Zygote
Gametes are a matured sperm (from a male) and a matured egg, or oocyte (from female). Each gamete is haploid (n), that is half the number of DNA required for the growth and development of an organism. Fusion of these two gametes results in a diploid cell (2n) with the right amount of DNA required. A fertilized egg is known as zygote which can develop to form an embryo.So, the correct answer is 'Zygote'.
