उत्तर
The oviduct, also known as the fallopian tube, plays two crucial roles in the human reproductive system:
- Transport of Egg: The oviduct transports the egg from the ovary to the womb (uterus). After ovulation, the egg is captured by the fimbriae at the end of the oviduct and is then moved towards the uterus through the oviduct.
- Site of Fertilization: It is the site where fertilization by sperm usually occurs. If sperm are present in the oviduct, fertilization can occur here before the egg continues its journey to the uterus.
