After fertilization, the zygote undergoes a series of divisions and forms a mass of many cells called a morula. Later, a fluid-filled cavity forms within the morula, and the cells are arranged into two groups around it. This structure is called the blastocyst. The cells of the outer layer of the blastocyst are called trophoblasts. When the blastocyst enters the uterus, the trophoblast cells secrete enzymes. These enzymes dissolve the cells of the uterine lining, forming a small cavity into which the blastocyst embeds. The trophoblast divides rapidly and forms two layers. The outer layer is called the syncytiotrophoblast, while…
