A.Fertilization - iii. Ampulla of oviduct

Fertilization typically occurs in the ampulla of the oviduct (fallopian tube), which is the site where the sperm meets and fertilizes the ovum.

B.Morula - i. 8-16 blastomeres

The morula is an early stage of embryonic development consisting of 8-16 blastomeres (cells) resulting from the cleavage of a fertilized egg.

C.Corpus luteum - iv. Progesterone

The corpus luteum is a structure formed in the ovary after ovulation. It secretes the hormone progesterone, which is essential for maintaining the uterine lining and supporting early pregnancy.

D.Parturition - ii. Delivery of the foetus

Parturition refers to the process of giving birth or the delivery of the fetus.
