Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pathway of an egg through the uterine tube starts with the fimbriae (2), which help guide the egg into the tube. Next, it enters the infundibulum (3), the funnel-shaped opening near the ovary. From there, it moves to the ampulla (1), the site of fertilization, and finally through the isthmus (4) before entering the uterus.
