     GOOD INFORMATION HERE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_differentiation


    A zygote (from Greek ζυγωτ?ς zyg?tos "joined" or "yoked", from ζυγο?ν zygoun "to join" or "to yoke"),[1] or zygocyte, is the initial cell formed when two gamete cells are joined by means of sexual reproduction. In multicellular organisms, it is the earliest developmental stage of the embryo. In single-celled organisms, the zygote divides to produce offspring, usually through meiosis.
