• Fertilisation is the fusion of a male gamete (sperm) and a female gamete (ovum). • It usually occurs in the ampulla region of the fallopian tube. • The sperm carries 23 chromosomes. • The ovum also carries 23 chromosomes. • After fusion, a diploid zygote with 46 chromosomes is formed. • Fertilisation restores the normal chromosome number of humans. • Millions of sperms are released, but only one sperm fertilises the ovum. • The acrosome of the sperm helps it penetrate the ovum. • The ovum prevents entry of additional sperms after fertilisation. • The nucleus of the sperm fuses with the nucleus of the ovum. • The fertilised egg is called a zygote. • The zygote is the first cell of a new individual. • Cleavage (rapid cell division) begins soon after fertilisation. • The zygote moves toward the uterus while dividing. • A morula stage is formed after repeated cell divisions. • The morula develops into a blastocyst. • Implantation occurs when the blastocyst attaches to the uterine wall. •...
