What is the combining of a sperm and egg called?

the process is called fertilisation and these gametes fuse and form a zygote


Does fertilisation take place during menstruation?

Fertilization typically occurs during ovulation when an egg is released from the ovary and is available to be fertilized by sperm. Menstruation is the shedding of the uterine lining if fertilization does not occur.


What happens between pollination and fertilisation?

After pollination, the pollen grain germinates and forms a pollen tube that grows down the style of the pistil to reach the ovule. Fertilisation occurs when the sperm cell from the pollen grain fuses with the egg cell in the ovule, resulting in the formation of a zygote.


What is the period between the fertilisation of the egg and the implantation of the embryo known as?

The period between the fertilisation of the egg and the implantation of the embryo is known as the pre-implantation period. During this time, the fertilized egg undergoes multiple cell divisions and forms a structure known as a blastocyst before implanting into the uterine lining.


How do blocked oviducts prevent fertilisation taking place?

Blocked oviducts prevent fertilization from taking place by inhibiting the egg's ability to travel to the uterus for potential fertilization by sperm. It also hinders the passage of sperm to the egg, preventing the two from meeting and fertilization from occurring. Additionally, blocked oviducts can disrupt the normal process of fertilization and implantation, leading to infertility.
