(a) Fetilization: When sperms and eggs from the opposite partners (males and  females) fuse to form Zygote. It is called fertilization.  

(b) Implantation: The fertilised egg (zygote) soon starts developing and by the time it  reaches the uterus, a small ball of numerous cells is already formed. This is a kind of  embryo which forms a pit in the wall of the uterus and gets fixed in it. This natural way of  fixing of the embryo in the wall of the uterus is called implantation. This produces the  state of pregnancy.  

(c) Puberty: Puberty is the period during which the reproductive systems of boys and  girls mature. In girls, it starts at the age of about ten and the first sign of puberty is the  development of breasts. In boys, it starts at about 11 years of age of the^enlargement of  the testes is its first sign. Sudden spurt in growth, shoulder girdle grows more than hip  girdle.
