Ovary
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Primary oocytes undergo gametogenesis, or meiosis division, in order to develop into an ovary or a female gamete. In females, the ovary is where the gametogenesis process takes place. Meiosis occurs in the ovary during gametogenesis in females.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis is the kind of cell division that produces sex cells or the gametes. It takes place in the plant reproductive organs-anther and ovary.

Detailed explanation-3: -After ovulation, the fringelike end of the fallopian tube sweeps the oocyte inside of the tube, where it begins its journey to the uterus. If the secondary oocyte is fertilized by a sperm as it is passing through the fallopian tube, it completes meiosis and forms a mature egg and another polar body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis occurs in the ovary, leading to the formation of the egg. From here, the egg travels through the Fallopian Tube where fertilization occurs.
