Detailed explanation-1: -Once inside the Fallopian tube, the oocyte is moved along by the rhythmic beating of cilia on the epithelial lining and by peristaltic action of the smooth muscle in the wall of the tube. The journey through the Fallopian tube takes about 7 days.
Detailed explanation-2: -The inner lining of the fallopian tubes is made up of ciliated epithelium. They have cilia, which help facilitate the movement of the egg to the uterus.
Detailed explanation-3: -Small finger like protrusions at the end of the fallopian tube, called fimbriae, sweep across the burst follicle and pick up the egg. The egg is transported to the entrance of the fallopian tube. Once inside the walls of the fallopian tube, muscle contractions push the egg gently towards the uterus.
