Q

● Superficial implantation
● The blastocyst lies in the uterine cavity.
● During the attachment with the uterine wall, the blastocyst surface generates finger like projections called chorionic villi, that, penetrate into the uterine wall,and are loosely united.
● The chorionic villi are simply
withdrawn from the uterine wall.

Q

● ‘Decidua’ means ‘to shed’
● Implantation is more intimate.
● The chorionic villi are complicated, branched and intimately connected with the endometrium.
● At birth, uterine tissue is also pulled out with the shedding of blood.

A

Q

● The implantation is intimate but both maternal tissue as well as foetal portion of placenta get torn off and are absorbed by mother’s leucocytes.
● Found in Perameles and T alpa (mole).
