Question 21 (5 points)

Which of the following terms describes a collection of hollow cells that implants on
the uterus wall after fertilization, but is not yet differentiated (in other words, all cells
are the same type of cell still)?
Fetus
Haploid
Mitosis
Blastocyst

Answer 1

Blastocyst

Step-by-step explanation:

Once an egg is fertilized by a sperm, it begins to divide by mitosis into a 2, 4, and then 8 celled structure. Eventually, this large collection of cells keeps dividing and becomes a hallow collection of undifferentiated cells called a blastocyst. The blastocyst will implant on the wall of the uterus where it will begin to grow and develop during pregnancy into a fetus.

Answer 2

The answer is option D.

Blastocyst
