Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A

Gametes are reproductive cells (sex cells) that unite during sexual reproduction to form a new cell called a zygote. Male gametes are sperm and female gametes are ova (eggs).

Embryo is the stage of animal development in the uterus before the animal is considered a fetus. In humans this is equivalent to the first three months.
