Fertilisation and Development in Human Beings

Students will learn about the human menstrual cycle, fertilisation, implantation, embryo development, and health risks during pregnancy. This topic covers the roles of hormones (FSH, LH, oestrogen, progesterone) and the structures like the placenta and amniotic sac. It is crucial for ECZ exam questions on human reproduction and aligns with the Zambian CBC's inclusion of life skills and health education. Understanding this topic promotes awareness of reproductive health and safe practices.
