Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The single cell resulting from fertilization is called a zygote. A blastocyst is a structure formed after several cell divisions and is typically seen after implantation. A morula is an early stage embryo consisting of a ball of cells. Trophoblast refers to the outer layer of cells in the blastocyst that contributes to the formation of the placenta. Embryoblast refers to the inner layer of cells in the blastocyst that gives rise to the embryo itself.
