Solution

An oocyte is fertilized in the oviduct.

Explanation:

An oocyte is fertilized in the oviduct (also called the fallopian tube) where the sperm meets the egg. Fertilization does not occur in the vagina, uterus, or ovary. The oviduct provides the suitable environment for the sperm and egg to meet and initiate fertilization before the zygote moves to the uterus for implantation.
