Fallopian tubes

 


Fallopian tubes: The female structures that transport the ova from the ovary to the uterus each month. In the presence of sperm and fertilization, the uterine tubes transport the fertilized egg to the uterus for implantation.

The fallopian tube connects to the ovary by way of finger like projections called fimbrae


The fallopian tube connects to the uterus which is a muscular organ containing 3 layers which include the outer perimetrium, middle smooth muscle myometrium layer and inner endometrium which is the layer that is eliminated during menstruation.
The fallopian tube (also called the uterine tube or oviduct) is responsible for transporting female gametes (ova) from the ovary to the uterus. It is also the site where fertilization typically occurs.
