12. Month 0 • Begins 3 weeks after 1st day of last period • Ovulation occurred and the egg/ovum was released • Sperm (several hundred million) deposited into female’s body and begins travel to find the egg in the fallopian tube. • The sperm beats against the ovum membrane • Sperm sheds its tail and burrows inside. • 2 cells now become one and begin to quickly divide to form a human being. • Begins to travel down the fallopian tube and 5-7 days after conception, the zygote implants itself into the endometrial lining

13. Human Egg with Coronal Cells This image is of a purple human egg sitting on a pin. The egg is coated with the zona pellicuda, a glycoprotein that protects the egg but also helps to trap and bind sperm. Two coronal cells are attached to the zona pellicuda.

14. Human Zygote and Sperm It looks like the world at war, but it is actually five days after the fertilization of an egg, with some remaining sperm cells still sticking around. The embryo and sperm cell nuclei are stained purple while sperm tails are green. The blue areas are gap junctions, which form connections between the cells.
