Question
In which female reproductive organ does the embryo get embedded?
Solution
After fertilisation, the zygote moves down the oviduct and divides repeatedly, forming a ball of cells. The cells then begin to form groups that develop into different tissues and organs of the body. This developing structure is termed an embryo. It becomes implanted in the uterine wall and continues to develop there. The embryo gets embedded in the wall of the uterus for further development.
