2. After the fusion of male sperm with the female gamete, the zygote moves from the fallopian tube towards the uterus.
3. Implantation takes place in the uterine wall of the female reproductive system.
4. The zygote undergoes cell division, and forms blastula. This blastula attaches to the uterine wall.
5. Implantation occurs about 5-7 days after fertilization.
