A zygote (from Greek Î¶ÏÎ³ÏÏÏÏ zygÅtos joined or yoked, from Î¶ÏÎ³Î¿á¿¦Î½ zygoun to join or to yoke), is an eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes. The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage.

The Greek word The s simply refers to deity. In most cases the word is used for the one true God. The s is the Greek counterpart to the Hebrew word el or elohim, and both Hebrew and Greek words have comparable meanings. Today, our word theology (meaning the study of God) comes from theo, the root word of theos.
