Summary Introduction
To determine:
The number of chromosomes contained within a human zygote.
Introduction:
The eukaryotic cell which is formed by the fusion of male (sperm) and female (oocyte) gametes is known as zygote. A zygote consists of 46 chromosomes.

Describe the formation of a zygote. How many pairsof chromosomes are in a zygote, and where do thechromosomes within a pair come from?
how would the chromosomes content of the eye cell of a man compare with the chromosome content of the zygote (fertilized egg) from which it developed?
Human cells normally have 46 chromosomes. For each of the following stages, state the number of chromosomes present in the particular cell.a) metaphase of mitosisb) metaphase I of meiosis
c) telophase of mitosisd) telophase I of meiosis
e) telophase II of meiosis
(Remember that a pair of attached chromatids count as one chromosome.)
