The blastocyst becomes embedded in the endometrium of the uterus. This is called: |
Lactation Parturition Implantation Gestation |
Implantation |
The correct answer is Option (3) → Implantation Humans are sexually reproducing and viviparous. The reproductive events in humans include formation of gametes (gametogenesis), i.e., sperms in males and ovum in females, transfer of sperms into the female genital tract (insemination) and fusion of male and female gametes (fertilisation) leading to formation of zygote. This is followed by formation and development of blastocyst and its attachment to the uterine wall (implantation), embryonic development (gestation) and delivery of the baby (parturition). |
