Study Notes

Reproductive System Interaction

  • During sexual intercourse, the male and female reproductive systems interact to produce a fertilized zygote.

Gamete Cells

  • Gamete cells have a chromosome count of 23 (haploid).

Fertilization

  • The process of two gamete cells merging into one zygote cell is called fertilization.

Development Process

  • The defined development process that the zygote undergoes is embryogenesis.

Gestation Period

  • The typical gestation period for a human offspring is approximately 38 weeks (or 266-270 days).
