Blastulation. The process of changing from a zygote to a blastula.
The fluid filled cavity in a blastula. Blastocoel.
Gastrulation. The process in which the cells on one side of a blastulla push into the form the two layered gasturla.

Surrounds the yolk and allows absorption of food into embryo blood vessels. Yolk sac.
LABEL THE EMBRYO :D
Female organ where the embryo develops. Uterus.
A mass of blood vessels attached to the stomach of an embryo and the placenta of the mother where materials are carried between the two . Umbilical cord.
Specialized organ where the embryo receives food and oxygen from the mother's body and gets rid of wastes, such as carbon dioxide. Placenta.
How are materials exchanged between the mother and the baby? Diffusion and active transport.
Where fertilization takes place. Fallopian Tube/Oviduct.
