Question

Where does the egg travel when it leaves the ovary?

Answer 1

Ovary:

1. The primary sex organs in females are a pair of ovaries, which produce ova or egg.
2. The ovarian follicle is called the basic unit of the female reproductive system.

Egg after it leaves the ovary:

1. The ovarian follicle wall ruptures at the ovarian surface releasing the egg from ovary.
2. Fimbriae, which are finger-like structures, whisk the egg into the adjoining fallopian tube.
3. The egg is driven down the fallopian tube by contractions in the fallopian tube walls.
