Question

Functions of fallopian tube

Answer 1

All human babies, including you, start out as a tiny egg that must go on a long and complicated journey through the female reproductive system. First, the egg is created within the ovary, where it stays until ovulation occurs. When ovulation occurs, the egg is released from the ovary into the pelvic cavity. At this point in the journey, the egg is vulnerable because it is no longer contained within the safe ovary. This is when the important structure known as the fallopian tube helps the egg out.

The fallopian tube, also known as the oviduct or uterine tube, is responsible for carrying the egg to the uterus. The fallopian tube has finger-like branches, called fimbriae, which reach out into the pelvic cavity and pick up the released egg. The egg is then brought into the fallopian tube where it will travel to the uterus.

Not only does the fallopian tube collect and transport the egg, it is also the location where fertilization occurs. Sperm cells that enter the reproductive system through the vagina travel to the fallopian tube where they fertilize the egg. The fertilized egg then continues its journey to the uterus, where it will implant and safely develop into a baby.
