Fertilisation in humans typically occurs in:
AThe uterus (in the uterine wall lining)
BThe cervix (the lower uterus narrow end)
CThe ovary (where eggs are produced first)
DThe fallopian tube (oviduct, ampulla)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The fallopian tube (oviduct, ampulla)
Human fertilisation usually occurs in the AMPULLA (widest part) of the fallopian tube (oviduct).
The fertilised zygote then travels to the uterus for implantation about 6-7 days later.
