Final answer:
The term 'Ovarian' does not pertain to the uterus but rather to the ovaries, making it the correct answer. Hysterectomy, Metritis, and Endometrium are all related to the uterus, while Ovarian is related to the female reproductive organ where eggs are produced. Fertilization typically occurs in the fallopian tube.
Step-by-step explanation:

The other terms listed relate to the uterus: a) Hysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus, b) Metritis is the inflammation of the uterine wall, and c) Endometrium refers to the lining of the uterus. The term Ovarian, however, pertains to the ovaries, which are the female reproductive organs where eggs are produced and the hormones estrogen and progesterone are secreted.
Fertilization of the egg by the sperm typically occurs in the c) fallopian tube, which is the passageway connecting the ovary to the uterus.
