Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Once the egg arrives at a specific portion of the tube, called the ampullar-isthmic junction, it rests for another 30 hours. Fertilization-sperm union with the egg-occurs in this portion of the tube. The fertilized egg then begins a rapid descent to the uterus.
Detailed explanation-2: -This egg leaves the ovarian follicle and is ‘captured’ in the end of the Fallopian tube. Here, it will begin to move slowly down the tube towards the womb (uterus). However, for a pregnancy to develop it must first meet sperm from the male whilst it is still held in the fallopian tube.
