Fertilisation and Pregnancy in Humans
During fertilisation, a sperm fuses with an ovum in the fallopian tube to form a zygote. The zygote
divides repeatedly to form an embryo, which gets implanted in the uterus and develops into a
foetus. Exam Tip: Learn NCERT definitions, diagrams and the functions of the placenta and
contraceptive methods.

Development of Embryo and Foetus
The embryo receives nourishment from the mother through the placenta. As development
continues, the embryo grows into a foetus with well-developed organs. Exam Tip: Learn NCERT
definitions, diagrams and the functions of the placenta and contraceptive methods.
