What is Zygotic Cleavage?

The video tutorial covers the process of embryology, starting with fertilization and oogenesis, leading to the formation of a zygote. It explains the differences between mitosis and cleavage, detailing the stages of cleavage from the zygote to the morula and eventually the blastocyst. The tutorial also discusses the implantation of the blastocyst in the uterine wall and concludes with microscopic images of these stages.

Discuss the journey of the secondary oocyte from ovulation to fertilization.

What are blastomeres and what role do they play in embryonic development?

How does the size of the blastocyst compare to that of the zygote, and why?

What is the role of the zona pellucida during the implantation of the blastocyst?
