Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conception is the process in which a single sperm cell fertilizes an ovum, forming a zygote. Ovulation refers to the release of an ovum from the ovary. Meiosis is the process of cell division that results in the formation of gametes (sperm and ova) with half the number of chromosomes as in somatic (body) cells. Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in the formation of two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
