Correct Answer
A. FimbriaeExplanation
The fingerlike structures in the fallopian tubes are called fimbriae. These structures help to capture the released egg from the ovary and guide it into the fallopian tube. The fimbriae have a brush-like appearance, with small hair-like projections that sweep the egg into the tube. Once the egg is in the fallopian tube, it can be fertilized by sperm and then travel to the uterus for implantation. The fimbriae play a crucial role in the reproductive process by aiding in the transportation of the egg.Rate this question:

14 day phase when baby gets ready .
- A.
Luteal phases
- B.
Myometrium
- C.
Ovaries
Correct Answer
A. Luteal phasesExplanation
The luteal phase refers to the second half of the menstrual cycle, which occurs after ovulation. During this phase, the ruptured follicle that released the egg transforms into the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone. This hormone prepares the uterus for possible pregnancy by thickening the uterine lining. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum breaks down, leading to the shedding of the uterine lining and the start of a new menstrual cycle. Therefore, the luteal phase is crucial for fertility and the preparation of the uterus for potential implantation of a fertilized egg.Rate this question:
