A genetically unique entity is formed shortly thereafter, called a zygote. This is commonly referred to as a "fertilized ovum." However that term is not really valid because the ovum ceases to exist after conception. ... The embryo will respond to prodding, although it has no consciousness at this stage of development.

Gene expression during fertilization and zygote development; --Dresselhaus, T, Cordts, S, Heuer, S, Bantin, J, Lorz, H, Kranz, E ... Concerning sexual reproduction there are mutants available where development is disturbed e.g. in flower formation, meiosis or embryogenesis (for review see Neuffer et al., Mutants of Maize,

Cleavage of the Zygote: cleavage of zygote forms 2 blastomeres, cleavage with no cytoplasm synthesis, therefore individual cell volume decreases, ... Distribution of male (green) and female (blue) parental chromosomes (genomes) in the embryo (mouse). Each frame shows progressively later stage in development.

A single sperm penetrates the mother's egg cell, and the resulting cell is called a zygote. The zygote contains all of the genetic information (DNA) necessary to become a child. Half of the genetic information comes from the mother ' s egg and half ... Further development of the heart which now beats at a regular rhythm...

A ball of cells is produced, each cell including a copy of the genes that will guide the development of the baby.

Recent advancement in genetics and molecular biology has given us new aspects of developmental processes. In this review, we first describe the phasic development of the rice plant, and then describe in detail the developmental courses of major organs, leaf, root and spikelet, and specific organs/tissues.
