organ D in the reproductive system of Y makes and releases gametes E which pass through a duct
F and are introduced by an organ of Y, into the body of X.B and E fuse together in C to form a new
cell G. The cell G divides repeatedly to form a ball of cells H which gets embedded in the lining of
organ I of reproductive system of X where it grows and develops into a baby.
