FERTILISATION EARLY DEVELOPMENT OF EMBRYO AND IMPLANTATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where does the implantation occur and the zygote develop?
A
in the uterus
B
in the ovary
C
in the vagina
D
in the fallopian tube
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During fertilization, the sperm and egg unite in one of the fallopian tubes to form a zygote. Then the zygote travels down the fallopian tube, where it becomes a morula. Once it reaches the uterus, the morula becomes a blastocyst . The blastocyst then burrows into the uterine lining-a process called implantation.

Detailed explanation-2: -A zygote forms when a sperm penetrates the outer surface of an egg. This happens in the fallopian tube. While the zygote stage is very brief, lasting only the early days of conception, it is important.

Detailed explanation-3: -Implantation. Once the embryo reaches the blastocyst stage, approximately five to six days after fertilization, it hatches out of its zona pellucida and begins the process of implantation in the uterus.
