Answer:

The correct answer is c. fallopian tubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Small finger-like projection which is present at the end of the fallopian tube are known as fimbria. These fimbria is located close to the ovary. As the fallopian tube is not directly connected to ovaries so this fimbria helps in the movement of the ovum into the fallopian tube.

Once the ovum is released from the ovary the sweeping movement of fimbria cilia allows the movement of the ovum into the fallopian tube and then through fallopian tube ovum reaches the uterus.

Therefore after the release of mature egg fimbria guides the mature egg into fallopian tubes.
