- A zygote is the formation from the two gametes, the sex cells sperm and egg. (pronuclei). It forms in about 3 days.
- An embryo has 3 main structural parts, further developed (forms in the 2nd week after pregnancy).
1. Brain/spinal cord, skin, nerves
2. Digestive system organs
3. Heart, muscles, & skeletal system
They both exist in the womb (uterus).

A fertilized egg before it implants in the uterus is called a zygote. Once it implants in the uterus, it is referred to as a blastocyst.
The zygote stays in the uterus of a woman is 9 months......
Fertilized ovum implants itself on the wall of the uterus. It is called as zygote.
The implantation of the zygote occurs in the uterus. The developing fetus continues to grow and develop in the uterus until birth.
Scientifically speaking, the product is a zygote. A zygote is the term for a fertilized egg in its early stages of development and when it has not yet arrived at the uterus(the egg is fertilized at the fallopian tubes). When it has attached itself to the uterus, it is called a blastocyte. After 7 to 10 days after the fertilization, it is called a gastrula. When the stem cells have fully specialized, it is called a embryo.
Implantation is the medical term meaning attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall. If the zygote does not attach, a period occurs.
A zygote typically implants itself in the endometrium, which is the inner lining of the uterus. The endometrium provides the necessary environment for the zygote to implant and develop into an embryo.
Zygote
The zygote, which is a fertilized egg, grows to maturity in the uterus.
The zygote develops into a blastocyst as it undergoes multiple divisions. This stage occurs before implantation in the uterus.
zygote divides by mitosis as it travels along the oviduct to the uterus where implantation takes place. The zygote developes into embryo and placenta
A zygote travels from the oviduct to the uterus for implantation and further development into an embryo. This journey is facilitated by ciliary movement in the oviduct and uterine contractions.
