A
Endometrium
B
Cervix
C
Ovary
D
Fallopian Tube
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One of two long, slender tubes that connect the ovaries to the uterus. Eggs pass from the ovaries, through the fallopian tubes, to the uterus. In the female reproductive tract, there is one ovary and one fallopian tube on each side of the uterus.

Detailed explanation-2: -The primary function of the fallopian tubes is to transport eggs from the ovary to the uterus. The eggs are picked up by the fimbriae and then swept towards the uterus. This movement is directed both by the beating of the cilia and by peristalsis, which is rhythmic contractions of the muscles of the tubes.

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.
