17. Stages of Fertilization Little Known Fact: Women are born with approximately 1 - 2 million immature eggs. Throughout her life, only about 40,000 survive and of those immature eggs, only about 400 will mature to be good enough candidates for fertilization Of the 400 eggs, one is lost each time a woman has a menstrual cycle. Quick math: 400 eggs = 400 periods (12/year for roughly 35 years) When eggs run out, no more periods = menopause

18. A. Egg is released from the ovary, otherwise known as ovulation or an ovulated egg. A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting

19. B. Fertilization (sperm meeting the egg) occurs far down in the oviduct, NOT in the uterus! Sperm travel against gravity and swim about 18 cm Only about 100 sperm actually make it to the egg, but only 1 sperm can burrow inside the egg and fertilize it. A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting

20. C. A zygote (fertilized egg) forms, otherwise known as day 0. A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting

21. D. At the start of day 2, mitosis splits the zygote into 2 cells. A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting

22. E. The fertilized egg travels farther down the oviduct during days 2-4, all the while mitosis is occurring at a rapid rate. A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting

23. F. By day 7, the fertilized egg, now called a blastocyst (ball of cells) implants into the endometrium of the uterus and continues to grow for 9 months. When a fertilized egg does not implant itself into the uterus, the uterine lining is shed (menstruation) A. Ovulated egg released B. Fertilization C. Zygote D.D. E. F. Blastocyst implanting
