Implantation of a Zygote....
is where hundreds of Sperm meet with one egg...
No, it isn't. That (above) is fertilization.
After egg it fertilized in the fallopian tube its cells begin to divide, and it is now called a zygote. In a process that takes an average of 10 days, the zygote travels along the fallopian tube to the uterus (in this time it starts to form a shell that will become the placenta), and will attempt to implant into the uterine wall. The beginnings of the placenta attach to the uterus.
Only about 1/3 of zygotes actually survive and manage implantation. If it achieves implantation, it has now reached embryonic stage.
My book says more than 50% of embryos are spontaneously aborted by our bodies, due to health of the mother, teratogens, or malformations of the embryo.
And another 5-10% are lost in the fetal stage (after 9 weeks), for various reasons.
So only about 10% of fertilized eggs ever make it to infancy!

How long is the zygote journey to the implantation site?
the zygote journey to implantation site is approx. 90 day
What is the attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall called?
Implantation
The zygote attaching to the uterine wall?
Implantation.
Development of a zygote from fertilization through implantation?
It is sexy?
What are the development of zygote?
zygote divides by mitosis as it travels along the oviduct to the uterus where implantation takes place. The zygote developes into embryo and placenta
Implantation of zygote and development of fetus occurs in this organ?
UTERUS
Where in the uterus does implantation occur?
Wherever the zygote lands and burrows in.
What is it called when a blastocyst attaches to the uterine wall?
implantation
Where do the nutrients used by the zygote between fertilization and implantation come from?
The nutrients used by the zygote between fertilization and implantation come from the newly formed placenta. The placenta is what provides nourishment to the developing fetus.
Which term describes the fertilized egg before implantation occurs?
zygote
What is it called when the embryo attaches to the wall of the uterus?
Implantation is the medical term meaning attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall. If the zygote does not attach, a period occurs.
Why implantation of zygote occur in upper posterior wall of uterus?
Because of one factor ie,high vascularity and endometrial thickness
