The small hair-like projection found inside the Fallopian tubes are called what?
A
fimbriae
B
cervix
C
cilia
D
gametes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Your fimbriae are finger-like projections at the ends of each of your fallopian tubes. Each month, they sweep a newly released egg from your ovaries into your fallopian tubes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Fallopian tubes have small hair-like projections called cilia on the cells of the lining. These tubal cilia are essential to the movement of the egg through the tube into the uterus. If the tubal cilia are damaged by infection, the egg may not get ‘pushed along’ normally but may stay in the tube.

Detailed explanation-3: -Small hair-like structures in the lining (cilia) sway, moving eggs, sperm and an embryo (if fertilization takes place) through your fallopian tubes.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
