Answer:

implantation

Step-by-step explanation:

The morula becomes hollow and fills with fluid — it is then known as a blastocyst. Near the end of this week, the blastocyst will attach itself to the endometrium, the lining of the uterus. This is called implantation.

Answer: Implantation

Implantation is the process when an embryo, in its blastocyst form moving along the uterus from the fallopian tubes, attaches to the uterine wall. Because of this attachment, the embryo receives all the nutrients and oxygen needed for it to grow. It then stays there until it develops into a fetus, and eventually born as an infant.
