Fertilization takes place.

The Blastocyst starts its journey down the fallopian tube. Blastocyst: A thin walled hollow structure that contains a cluster of cells from which the embryo arises.

The ovum or blastocyst implants itself into the uterus.

Three weeks later the blastocyst becomes an embryo.
