Oogenesis
OoGenesis involves three sequences what are they
Reduction division (Meiosis I)
equatorial division (Meiosis II)
maturation

Fallopian tube
That you didn’t tubes are composed of three layers histologically speaking
Internal mucosa the middle of muscularis and the outer serosa
Structure of the fallopian tube
I-Ai-I
Infundibulum
Ampulla
Isthmus
Interstitium or interstitial portion
This segment is a distal funnel shape end which specifically receives the mature oxides from the ovaries with the help of fimbriae
Infundibulum
Finger like projections that aids in transporting the mature all sides into the tube
Fimbriae
This is the most common site for fertilization
Ampulla
P this segment is the narrowest of the segments and the site for tubal ligation
Isthmus
This is the segment nearest the uterus
Interstitium
Is an organ with the shape and size that of an inverted pair located between the urinary bladder and the rectum
