The adult male and female gametes are formed by meiosis.
When we have sufficient cells this will then be called an embryo.
The cells that are formed by meiosis have half as many chromosomes as the cell that formed them.
Fertilisation occurs when a male and female gamete join.
The zygote divides into a ball of cells, called the blastula which then grows to form the embryo.
