What part sweeps the mature egg from the ovaries?
A
ovum
B
fallopian tubes
C
fimbria
D
uterine lining
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: -Egg Transport By ovulation, the fimbriae of the uterine tube move closer to the ovary and seem to sweep rhythmically over its surface. This action, in addition to the currents set up by the cilia, efficiently captures the ovulated egg complex.

Detailed explanation-3: -…in many fingerlike branches (fimbriae) near the ovaries, forming a funnel-shaped depository called the infundibulum. The infundibulum catches and channels the released eggs; it is the wide distal (outermost) portion of each fallopian tube.
