Whats the difference between “fertilization” and “implantation”?
Fertilization, also known as conception, is described above. Fertilization occurs in the Fallopian tube. After fertilization, the tiny human being travels down the fallopian tube. Implantation, which occurs 8 to 10 days after fertilization, refers to the point at which the baby (now scientifically referred to as an “embryo”), implants in the mother’s uterus and begins to draw nourishment.
