1. 1(生物)受精;(農業)施肥

    This word covers two quite different topics. In biology, it's the moment when a male cell and a female cell join together to start making a new living thing — the very first step of making a baby, in humans, animals, or plants. In farming and gardening, it means adding (special plant food) to soil so crops grow bigger and healthier.
