A baby is made

The fertilization takes place in the mothers reproductive system. The egg and the sperm fertilize in one of her fallopian tubes. As soon as the sperm cell meets the egg cell, a film is produced around the egg. This prevents any additional sperm cells from entering the egg cell. Once fertilization takes place, a new life begins to grow

31. Once the egg is fertilized it travels from the tubes to the - the organ where the embryo is protected and nourished. The cell begins to divide during a process known as. After 3 weeks the embryo is formed.

32. After 8 weeks cells combine forming tissue, to form organs and organs form systems. The embryo is now a. 33. in order for the baby to grow, it must get food from its mother and this is from the - a thick, rich tissue that lines the walls of the uterus during pregnancy and that nourishes the fetus. 34. the fetus gets food and oxygen through a blood vessel in the - a tube that connects the mother’s placenta to the fetus.
