Question 2
Question
Complete each of the following sentences
The first diploid cell formed by fusion of egg and sperm is a [blank_start]zygote[blank_end].
A [blank_start]Blastocyst[blank_end] is the early stage in development before implantation, it consists of an outer trophoblast and an inner cell mass.
An [blank_start]Embryo[blank_end] is an egg that has been fertilised by a sperm that has undergone one or more divisions
[blank_start]Cleavage[blank_end] results in a solid cluster of cells called a [blank_start]Morula[blank_end].
The Accumulation of secretions within the trophoblast lead to the formation of a cavity called the [blank_start]Blastocele[blank_end].

Question 3
Question
The Zonula Pellucida is the capsule that surrounds the initial embryo before implantation
Answer
True
False
Question 4
Question
Which of the following statements is true regarding Cleavage
Answer
Cleavage results in an increase in the number of cells
Cleavage results in an increase in the size of the embryo
Cleavage results in the formation of a Zygote then ultimately a Blastocyst
Cleavage results in the formation of a Morula then ultimately a Blastocyst
Cleavage results in the formation of a Morula then ultimately a Blastocele
Cleavage results in the formation of a Zygote then ultimately a Morula
