Sign in to saveAn embryo ( ) is the initial stage of development for a multicellular organism. In organisms that reproduce sexually, embryonic development is the part of the life cycle that begins just after fertilization of the female egg cell by the male sperm cell. The resulting fusion of these two cells produces a single-celled zygote that undergoes many cell divisions that produce cells known as blastomeres. The blastomeres are arranged as a solid ball that when reaching a certain size, called a morula, takes in fluid to create a cavity called a blastocoel. The structure is then termed a blastula, or a
An embryo is the earliest stage of development in a multicellular organism, beginning right after a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell in sexually reproducing species. The fertilized egg then divides repeatedly, eventually forming a structured ball of cells with a fluid-filled cavity, which marks the transition into more complex development.
