After about a week from conception the zygote consists of over 100 cells. It then separates into two distinct mases. The outer cells form a shell that will become the placenta and the inner cells will become the embryo. First the outer cells must implant or embed themselves in the wall of the uterus. This occurs at about 10 days after conception.
If implantation occurs the cells will grow and become an embryo and placenta. An umbilical cord forms and connects to the embryo's stomach and placenta so the embryo can get nourishment.
