Final answer:
Fertilization typically takes place in the Fallopian tube(d) when sperm fertilize an egg as it passes through, and if successful, the embryo then moves towards the uterus for further growth.
Step-by-step explanation:
Fertilization usually occurs in the Fallopian tube(d). Sperm must travel from the vagina, through the uterus, and into the Fallopian tubes where they may encounter and fertilize the egg. The process by which the sperm fertilizes the egg takes place most often in the part of the Fallopian tube that passes above the ovary. If fertilization occurs, the fertilized egg (embryo) will then travel towards the uterus for implantation and further development.
