Oviducal funnel: The released egg is picked up by the fimbriae (cilia) of the oviducal funnel of the oviduct.
Ovary: It produces gg and the female hormones progesterone and oestrogen.
Lining of uterus: It provides a surface for the implantation of a fertilised egg. - If both Fallopian tubes are blocked, the ovary's ovum will not reach the oviduct, preventing fertilization.
