  1. The correct option is (iv) A is false, but R is true. Assertion A is false because the newly formed zygote divides mitotically into a multicellular embryo while moving down the fallopian tube over several days before implanting. Reason R is true because during every normal menstrual cycle, the uterine lining thickens and enriches with blood vessels to receive a fertilized egg.
