Solution

Zygote:

  1. Zygote is a fertilised egg cell.
  2. It is formed by the union of a female gamete and a male gamete.
  3. The zygote stage in human and other organisms' embryonic development is brief.
  4. It is followed by cleavage when the single cell is subdivided into smaller cells.

Location of the zygote:

  1. The zygote is found in the flower's ovary after fertilization.
  2. The egg is found inside the ovary's ovule.
  3. Pollen travels up the pollen tube to the egg and unites with it, resulting in the development of a zygote.
  4. As a result, the zygote develops inside the ovary's ovule.
