Solution

The correct option is A Uterus
The oviducts (fallopian tubes), uterus and vagina constitute the female accessory ducts. Each fallopian tube is about 10-12 cm long and extends from the periphery of each ovary to the uterus, the part closer to the ovary is the funnel-shaped infundibulum. The edges of the infundibulum possess finger-like projections, called as fimbriae, which help in collection of the ovum after ovulation. The infundibulum leads to a wider part of the oviduct called as ampulla. The last part of the oviduct, isthmus has a narrow lumen and it joins the uterus.
