The germ cell A produced by a person X is round in shape and it fuses with another germ cell B having a long tail and produced by a person Y. The fusion of A and B produces a new cell C. The cell C divides repeatedly and grows inside the organ D of person X to form E in which the body features of the unborn baby are not much developed. E grows further to form F in which the various body features of the unborn baby (like hands, legs, eyes, and ears, etc.) can be identified. F grows further and ultimately forms a baby. What are A,B C,D E and F? Out of the two person X and Y, which one is male and which one female?

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify Germ Cells A and B:** - Germ cell A is described as round in shape, which indicates it is a female gamete (ovum or egg). - Germ cell B has a long tail, indicating it is a male gamete (sperm). **Conclusion:** - A = Ovum (female gamete) - B = Sperm (male gamete) 2. **Determine the Gender of Persons X and Y:** - Since A (the ovum) is produced by person X, person X must be female. - Since B (the sperm) is produced by person Y, person Y must be male. **Conclusion:** - X = Female - Y = Male 3. **Fusion of A and B:** - The fusion of the ovum (A) and sperm (B) produces a new cell C, known as a zygote. **Conclusion:** - C = Zygote 4. **Growth of Cell C:** - The zygote (C) divides repeatedly and grows inside the organ D of person X, which is the uterus. **Conclusion:** - D = Uterus 5. **Development of E:** - The zygote develops into an embryo, which is the early stage of development before the features of the unborn baby are fully formed. **Conclusion:** - E = Embryo 6. **Development of F:** - As the embryo (E) grows further, it develops into a fetus (F), where various body features of the unborn baby (like hands, legs, eyes, and ears) can be identified. **Conclusion:** - F = Fetus 7. **Final Summary:** - A = Ovum (female gamete) - B = Sperm (male gamete) - C = Zygote - D = Uterus - E = Embryo - F = Fetus - Person X is Female and Person Y is Male. ---
