Solution

The correct option is D Oviduct
The Wolffian duct is also known as the mesonephric duct.
It is an embryonic duct that connects the kidneys to the cloaca in the embryo. It is acted upon by the hormone testosterone,
In the presence of testosterone in males, this differentiates into Epididymis, Vas deferens, Ejaculatory duct, and Rete testis.

In females, as the testosterone is absent so the duct regresses.

So, the correct option is 'Oviduct'.
