Summary Introduction

Introduction: Fertilization is the process that involves the fusion of male and female gamete, which forms a zygote. The zygote undergoes cleavage which further develops into an embryo. Different animals have different developmental stages. For example, in mammals, the zygote undergoes cleavage and form 8-cell stage, 16-cell stage, blastula, gastrula, and many more.
