Question

The Zygote undergoes continuous cell division called blastosis to create multicellular embryo
Options
A True
B False
Correct Answer
C
D
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

This statement is false. The zygote undergoes continuous cell divisions called cleavage. Blastosis is not a standard term. The process of cleavage leads to the formation of a morula, then a blastula (blastocyst in mammals), and eventually through gastrulation to an embryo.

Hint

Is the rapid cell division after fertilization called cleavage or blastosis?
