Solution

The correct option is D After ovulation it helps ovum to enter into fallopian tube
In the female reproductive system each oviduct (fallopian tube) shaped like a funnel which is known as infundibulum. It consists of finger-like structures called fimbriae, which move on the ovary. When an ovum has released from the ovary, the infundibulum directs the ovum into the fallopian tube, where the fertilization occurs.

Hence, the correct answer is option D.
