Question

Passage of ova through the female reproductive tract is facilitated by
A) Ciliary movement
B) Amoeboid movement
C) Flagellar movement
D) Cyclosis

Answer 1

Hint: From the ejaculation of sperm and the fertilization of eggs or release of egg all are involved in the female reproductive process that is carried out by the reproductive organs.

Complete Answer:
- The female reproductive organs includes; vagina, uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. The vagina is a muscular tube that receives the penis during the sexual intercourse and from where the new born baby leaves the uterus during childbirth.
- The uterus is the organ that is nourished and holds a fetus that is under development stage while the egg gets fertilized. The ovaries are the female gonads when it gets mature it is released down inside the fallopian tube.
- The fallopian tubes involve in the transportation of ova from the ovaries to the uterus and there the egg either gets fertilized or released to menstruation.
- Now, the fallopian cells have cell lines that consist of small hair-like projections considered as cilia that allow the movement of ovum to the uterus, therefore, the passage of ova through the female reproductive tract is due to ciliary movement.
- The cyclosis is the movement of cytoplasm inside a living cell without deforming the cell membrane. This type of movement is not observed in the female reproductive tract.

Thus, the correct answer is ‘A’. Ciliary movement.

Note: The fetus is formed only when the ovaries get fertilized by the sperm. The female body releases ova to the uterus every month where they wait to get fertilized if not they get released or diffused and come out as blood that is termed as the menstrual cycle.
