Fertilization is the impregnation, the state when<span> a sperm cell penetrates the egg cell and the genetic material of both cells combines.
A few days after fertilization i</span><span>mplantation happens. Implantation is the attachment of the fertilized egg to the uterus, happens on average about 9 days after ovulation/fertilization (between 6 and 12 days) and is required for the fetus to continue to grow.</span>
<span>Regions of DNA that read the same regardless of the direction are called Palindromes. The sequence of nucleotides is the same whether you start from the 3' end or the 5' end. Palindromes may occur due to chromosomal inversion or due to breakage.</span>
