You can't get to the zygote without the sperm. You don't GET a potential zygote unless you start with these other potentials. And once you get the zygote you still need salt, pepper, yeast, heat, and 5,248 enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and some green tea.


You left out the most important part. You also need a six pack of beer.

You don't get a zygotes unless you start with sperm and ova, you don't get bread unless you start with ingredients like flour, water, yeast, etc. But flour, water and yeast are not bread, and zygotes are not sperm or ova. Fertilization (or mixing and needing and rising and backing) make a new thing, not just the sum of its parts.

A fertilized egg is an EGG. IT IS NOT A FERTILIZED DOLPHIN OR HUMAN. IT IS AN EGG

It fertilized human egg is a human, a fertilized dolphin egg is a dolphin.
