Solution

The correct option is B False

Fallopian tube/oviduct:

  1. The oviduct is about 10 to 12 cm long muscular tube.
  2. It conveys the egg from the ovary to the uterus and provides the appropriate environment for its fertilization.
  3. It consists of four parts- the infundibulum, ampulla, isthmus, and uterine part.
  4. These tubes are enclosed in small projections called fimbriae that swipe over the ovaries to pick up released ova and deliver them to the infundibulum for supplying the uterus.
  5. Each fallopian tube is covered by cilia that function by carrying the ovum to the uterus.

Final answer: The given statement is false.
