What is the term for a fertilized egg?

  1. Domain, Phylum, Class, Family

  2. Monera

  3. Zygote

  4. Ventilation

The correct answer is: Zygote

A Zygote is the initial cell formed when a sperm fertilizes an egg in sexual reproduction. It goes through a process of cell division to eventually become an embryo. Domain, Phylum, Class, and Family are hierarchical categories used in taxonomy to classify living organisms, and are not related to the term for a fertilized egg. Monera is an outdated kingdom classification for certain single-celled organisms, not related to the term for a fertilized egg. Ventilation is the process of moving air in and out of the lungs, and is not related to the term for a fertilized egg.
