Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A fertilized egg undergoes several stages before it is implanted. In which of the following structure of the female reproductive system is the egg fertilized?
A
Ovary
B
Uterus
C
Fallopian tube
D
Cervix
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During fertilization, the sperm and egg unite in one of the fallopian tubes to form a zygote. Then the zygote travels down the fallopian tube, where it becomes a morula. Once it reaches the uterus, the morula becomes a blastocyst . The blastocyst then burrows into the uterine lining-a process called implantation.

Detailed explanation-2: -If one of the sperm cells penetrates the egg, the egg is fertilized and begins developing. The egg takes several days to travel down the fallopian tube into the uterus. After it is in the uterus, a fertilized egg usually attaches to (implants in) the lining of the uterus (endometrium).

Detailed explanation-3: -About 6 days after fertilization, the blastocyst attaches to the lining of the uterus, usually near the top. This process, called implantation, is completed by day 9 or 10.

Detailed explanation-4: -Ampulla: The major channel in your fallopian tube, located in-between the infundibulum and the isthmus. Fertilization most often takes place in the ampulla.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ovulation is when your ovary releases an egg for fertilization. Tiny finger-like structures called fimbriae help guide the egg through your fallopian tubes towards your uterus. During this journey through your fallopian tubes, an egg can be fertilized by sperm.
