Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Embryonic development : Embryonic development is the series of processes where a fertilized egg forms an embryo, then a fetus capable of adapting to postnatal life.
  • Embryonic period : The embryonic period is the phase during which the major organ systems are established.
  • Fertilization site : The fertilization site is the location where sperm contact the oocyte, mainly the ampullary region of the oviduct.
  • Zona pellucida : The zona pellucida is the oocyte covering the fertilizing sperm must interact with during the first steps of fertilization.
  • Polyspermy block : The polyspermy block is the cortical response after gamete fusion that prevents further sperm from entering the oocyte.
