Expert Solution
Step 1

 During fertilization, sperm get fused with the egg released by ovary inside female body. Cilia which lines the fallopian tube move the fertilized egg called zygote which travels from the fallopian tube to the uterus. Zygotic cells divide continuously till it reaches uterus. 

Inside uterus, the cells divide repeatedly and develop into a hollow round structured cells known as blastocyst. Since fertilization, it takes approximately six days for the implantation of blastocyst to the uterus wall. Then further, it grows into an embryo which is connected with the placenta and covered by membranes filled with fluid.
