- A human is a complex organism that develops from a zygote. Briefly explain some of the the steps in this development process in the form of a paragraph. In your answer, be sure to: 1) explain how a zygote formed, 2) compare the genetic content of the zygote to the body cells of the parents, 3) identify the structure in which embryonic/fetal development usually occurs within, and 4) identify the structure that forms, which provides nourishment and waste removal to/from the developing baby.arrow_forwardPlease help to answer with explanation: Cnidaria (jelly fish) have neuromuscular (nerve net) cells in their ectoderm.

(I) After sperm entry into the vegetal hemisphere of the oocyte, the yellow cortical cytoplasm and the clear cytoplasm derived from the breakdown of the oocyte nucleus contract vegetally toward the sperm.(II) Before fertilization, yellow cortical cytoplasm surrounds the gray (yolky) inner cytoplasm. (III) The final position of the yellow cytoplasm marks the location where cells give rise to tail muscles.(IV) As the sperm pronucleus migrates animally toward the newly formed egg pronucleus, the yellow and clear cytoplasm move with it.arrow_forward
