O Levels Biology (5090)•5090/12/O/N/19
Question 35 from 5090/12/O/N/19

Explanation

Implantation occurs in the uterus

Steps:

  • Recall that fertilization typically happens in the fallopian tube after ovulation.
  • The zygote travels down the fallopian tube toward the uterus over 3-4 days.
  • Implantation is the process where the blastocyst embeds into the uterine lining.
  • Identify the diagram label for the uterus as the site.

Why C is correct:

  • By definition, implantation occurs in the endometrium of the uterus, where the blastocyst attaches for pregnancy development.

Why the others are wrong:

  • A: Ovary produces eggs but does not support implantation.
  • B: Fallopian tube is for fertilization and transport, not embedding.
  • D: Cervix connects uterus to vagina but lacks the lining for implantation.

Final answer: C
