Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The structure that draws the mature egg into the Fallopian tube is the
A
fimbriae
B
cervix
C
vagina
D
corpus luteum
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. If the egg gets fertilized, it becomes an embryo.

Detailed explanation-2: -Once the mature ovum is released from the ovary, the fimbriae catch the egg and direct it down the fallopian tube 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.
