Answer:
After fertilization, the zygote travels down the oviduct and divides over and over again, to form a ball of cells. This is known as cell division. The cells then begin to form different tissues and organs of the body. This developing structure is called the embryo. Embryo gets embedded in the wall of the uterus for nutrition and protection.
During the development, the different groups of cells change their size and shape, and turn into the different body parts such as head, hands, legs, etc. This is called cell differentiation or cell maturation. The stage at which all the body parts of the embryo could be recognized is called, the foetus. The foetus keeps developing further. When all body parts assume the right size and forms, the development is complete and the individual is born.
