in her ovules(wrong its fallopian tubes)

Improved answer:

A technique in which the male and female germ cells required to begin formation of a human embryo are injected into a woman's fallopian tubes of the female for fertilization. This technique is one of the methods doctors use to overcome infertility, the inability of couples to produce offspring on their own.

Gametes (germ cells) in males are the spermatozoa, or sperm, and those in females are ova, or eggs. After a sperm fertilizes an egg in the fallopian tubes, the egg implants itself in the uterus (womb), a hollow organ that lodges and nourishes the embryo during its development.

The term "intrafallopian" means "inside the fallopian tubes." ("Intra," a Latin word, means "within" or "inside.") Thus, in the GIFT technique, fertilization takes place inside the body of the female. By contrast, in the technique of in vitro fertilization (IVF), eggs are fertilized outside the body.

"Gamete" is derived from the Greek word "gamete" (wife) and "gamein" (to marry).

Where does the fusion of male and female semen take place?

The fusion of male and female gametes (sperm and egg) typically takes place in the fallopian tubes of a woman's reproductive system. After fertilization, the fertilized egg (zygote) then travels down to the uterus for implantation and further development.


Can reproduction take place if the make or female does not mature?

No, reproduction cannot take place if either the male or female does not reach maturity. Sexual maturity is necessary for the production of gametes (sperm and eggs) that are needed for fertilization to occur.


How are female gametes transported and utilized in sexual reproduction?

Female gametes, or eggs, are typically transported from the ovary to the fallopian tube where fertilization may occur. During sexual intercourse, the male gametes, or sperm, are released into the female reproductive system and travel through the cervix and uterus to reach the fallopian tube where fertilization of the egg can take place. After fertilization, the fertilized egg (zygote) implants in the uterus to develop into an embryo.


Can fusion take place in the nucleus of a uranium atom?

Not fusion, but a fission reaction.


Why doesn't nuclear fusion take place in a white dwarf?

Nuclear fusion doesn't take place in a white dwarf because the core temperature and pressure aren't high enough to initiate the fusion of heavier elements such as carbon and oxygen. White dwarfs have already exhausted their nuclear fuel and are essentially the leftover cores of stars that have gone through their fusion stages.

Where does meiosis take place in the flower?

Meiosis in flowers takes place in the ovary within structures called ovules. Ovules undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes called eggs or female gametes. This process is essential for sexual reproduction in plants.


Why does meiosis take place where does it take place?

It takes place in the sex organs. So it can produce 4 gametes.
