Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Tiny hair-like structures that line the fimbriae called cilia beat rapidly in the direction of your uterus. This beating motion sweeps the egg into your fallopian tubes, where it can be fertilized by your partner’s or a donor’s sperm.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are two steps involved in oocyte transport. The first is the picking up of the oocyte from the surface of the ovary or from the ovarian bursa by the fimbria. The second is transport of the oocyte through the oviductal ampulla.
