Options

• False

Answer 1

This statement is True.

Correct Statement:

In adult human females, one mature egg (ovum) is typically released from one of the ovaries into the oviduct (fallopian tube) every month. This process is known as ovulation and it usually occurs around the middle of the menstrual cycle. If the egg is fertilized by sperm, pregnancy can occur; otherwise, the egg disintegrates and is expelled from the body during menstruation.
