Fertilization normally takes place in the?

Fertilization normally takes place in the fallopian tubes of the female reproductive system. Sperm travels through the vagina and cervix into the uterus, then into the fallopian tubes where it may encounter and fertilize an egg released from the ovary.


Name the part of the flower where fertilisation takes place?

Fertilization in a flower typically takes place in the ovary, where the ovules are located. Once the pollen lands on the stigma and germinates, it forms a pollen tube that grows down to the ovule within the ovary. This is where the sperm from the pollen reaches the egg for fertilization to occur.


Where does fertilization of an egg by sperm take place?

Fertilization of an egg by sperm typically occurs in the fallopian tubes of the female reproductive system. The sperm travels through the cervix and uterus to reach the egg in the fallopian tube, where fertilization takes place.


Which is formed from the fertilization of eggs within the embryo sac?

The formation of seeds is a result of the fertilization of eggs within the embryo sac. After pollination occurs and sperm cells from the pollen reach the egg cell in the embryo sac, fertilization takes place resulting in the development of a seed.


How does fertilasation takes place?

Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell from a male and an egg cell from a female unite to create a new organism. This typically happens in the fallopian tube of the female reproductive system. The sperm must swim through the female reproductive tract to reach the egg and penetrate its outer layer in order to fertilize it.
