Question

Fertilization typically occurs while the ovum is passing through the..?

Answer 1

Answer:

Fallopian tube.

Explanation:

The fallopian tubes are the channels that connect the uterus and ovaries. The fallopian tubes are like a tube, but they also behave like a fishing net, collecting the egg released in ovulation and transporting the sperm to the egg and then carrying the fertilized egg to the uterus. Thus we can state that fertilization usually occurs while the egg is passing through the fallopian tubes.

It is in the fallopian tubes that tubal ligation surgery is performed when a woman no longer wishes to become pregnant, which is a clue to its importance for spontaneous pregnancy.

Answer 2

The ovaries produce the female egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle
