Fertilization

(Union of Oozyte and Spermatozoa)

Zygote Formation (Unicellular)

(Intermingling of haploid paternal 23 X and Y and maternal X chromosomes)

Series of mitotic cell division (Cleavage)

(In 24 hour become two-cell organism)

Morula formation
(In 72 hours become 16 cell
organism)

Morula enters the uterus on the 3rd day through peristaltic

movement

Separate into two parts by fluid from the uterus on

the 4th day

The outer layer gives rise to the The inner layer gave rise to the
placenta embryo
( Trophoblast ) ( Embryoblast )

Blastocytes ataches to
endometrium on the 6th day

Implantation
 Embryonic development begins during second
week and continues through the eight week

3 Stages

1st stage – increase in cell

number and with
elaboration of cell products

2ndstage – morphogenesis /
includes mass cell Fetal development starts from ninth week until
movement birth

3rdstage – differentiation or
maturation of physiologic
processes

Newborn baby via vaginal birth
