Question

after fertilization in the fallopian tube, what happens to the zygote? order the statements below to identify the best sequence of events.
1 the embryo will become dependent on its mother for nutrition as it develops into a fetus
2 over a few days, the zygote will travel down its fallopian tube toward the uterus
3 the zygote cells will begin rapidly dividing
4 the developing embryo will become embedded in the wall of the uterus

Explanation:

This is a sequence of early human embryonic development after fertilization. First, the zygote travels toward the uterus from the fallopian tube. Then, its cells start rapid division. Next, it implants into the uterine wall. Finally, it develops into a fetus dependent on the mother.

Answer:

1. Over a few days, the zygote will travel down its fallopian tube toward the uterus
2. The zygote cells will begin rapidly dividing
3. The developing embryo will become embedded in the wall of the uterus
4. The embryo will become dependent on its mother for nutrition as it develops into a fetus
