Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The blastocyst eventually becomes the embryo. The blastocyst is a pre-implantation structure that consists of an inner cell mass that later becomes an embryo, and an outer layer called the trophoblast that later forms the placenta. Sperm cells fertilize the egg cell to form the zygote, which then undergoes cell division to form the blastocyst. The placenta is formed from the trophoblast, but it is not the same as the embryo.
