1.	Describe in brief what happens to zygote when it gets implanted
Answer» The zygote formed after fertilization in the fallopian tube is implanted in the uterus. It divides repeatedly to form a mass of cells known as an embryo. This embryo gets attached to the inner layer of the uterine cavity, i.e., endometrium. It thickens every month and is supplied with blood to nourish the embryo. Soon it gets covered by rapidly dir.iding uterine cells. This leads to pregnancy.\xa0Within a span of some months, the embryo starts developing limbs and begins to resemble a miniature human being. When all body parts of the embryo can be recognized, it becomes a fetus. When this fetus is fully developed, the mother\xa0gives birth to the baby.
