Human reproduction involves the complex processes of fertilisation and embryo development. Fertilisation occurs when the nucleus of a sperm cell fuses with the nucleus of an ovum to form a zygote. The zygote undergoes mitosis to develop into a blastocyst, which then implants into the endometrium. Th
