Fertilization MITOSIS egg n=23 haploid Sperm n=23 haploid Zygote n=46 diploid Stem Cells Diploid=2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n 2n The fusion of a sperm and egg to form a zygote. Once an egg is fertilized, the zygote will go through mitosis to create more cells. The new cells created are stem cells until they are differentiated (told what to become)
