Solution

The correct option is B Oviduct
An oocyte is a female gametocyte or germ cell involved in reproduction. In other words, it is an immature ovum or egg cell. An oocyte is produced in the ovary during female gametogenesis. The passageway from the ovaries to the outside of the body is known as the oviduct. The eggs travel along the oviduct and get fertilized by sperm to become a zygote.
So the correct option is 'oviduct'.
