The first stages of fertilization involve the sperm penetrating the egg's outer layer, followed by the fusion of the genetic material from the sperm and egg to form a zygote. This process culminates in the formation of a fertilized egg ready for implantation in the uterus.
sperm cells are released
the sperm swim to the eggs
sperm cell and egg combine
a zygote forms
Zebrafish exhibit external fertilization, where the female releases eggs and the male fertilizes them outside of the body. The embryos develop externally, with the early stages of development taking place outside of the mother's body in the water.
Fertilization in mammals involves several stages: 1) Sperm migration through the female reproductive tract to reach the egg, 2) Penetration of the egg's protective barrier by the sperm, 3) Fusion of the sperm and egg nuclei to form a zygote, and 4) Initiation of embryonic development.
After fertilization, the embryo undergoes several stages: cleavage (cell division), morula (solid ball of cells), blastocyst (hollow structure), and implantation (attachment to the uterine wall). This process takes about 5-7 days after fertilization before the embryo implants in the uterus.
A developing human during the first eight weeks after fertilization is known as an embryo.
The developmental stages a human undergoes between fertilization and birth include: zygote, blastocyst, embryo, and fetus. During these stages, the fertilized egg undergoes cell division, implantation into the uterus, organ formation, and growth. By the end of the fetal stage, the developing human is ready for birth.
