Q

Describe the path an oocyte takes once ovulated.

A
  • ovulates from ovary
  • passes abdominal ostium
  • caught by the infundibulum with fimbriae
  • passes through ampulla
  • fertilization occurs at ampulla/isthmus junction
  • passes through isthmus
  • passes through tubouterine junction into uterine horn
