The egg is ALWAYS fertilized in the fallopian tube. When it is a normal pregnancy it will continue to travel on to the uterus and secure itself to the wall there. Should it secure itself to the wall of the fallopian tube it is referred to as a 'tubal pregnancy' which can be very dangerous and very rarely leads to a live birth. That fertilized egg can travel into the uterus and never attach sometimes. It simply sloughs off and leaves the body during menses. With all the things that can go wrong it's amazing how often people actually carry a normal baby to term!!!! Yes and if it's fertized and planted in the fallopian tube it's called an ectopic pregnancy and will become life threatening. When the embryo of an ectopic pregnancy grows in the fallopian tube, it causes the tube to expand (which it is not meant to do), causing pain to the woman, and with the growth of the fetus, will eventually cause the fallopian tube to burst. When this happens there is a lot of internal bleeding and toxins from this bursting are released into the bloodstream, both of which can be fatal. The only option in an ectopic pregnancy is to abort the pregnancy for the health of the mother.

Where is the egg located when fertilization occurs?
in humans, the egg is fertilized in the fallopian tube. the egg is released from the ovary and waits there in hopes of being fertilized. this is called ovulation. the sperm travels through the cervix, through the uterus, and into the fallopian tube where it looks for the egg.chickens have an organ called infundibulum where the sperm will be. then they lay the fertilized egg.Uterine (Fallopian) Tube
Where do the sperms and egg meet?
In humans, eggs are typically fertilized in the Fallopian tube. The fertilized egg begins to divide and continues down the tube and implants in the uterine lining. If it implants in the Fallopian tube, this is known as an ectopic pregnancy (bad). In a chicken also, the egg is fertilized in the first part of the hens oviduct.

How are female eggs fertilized by a male sperm?

Where is the egg usually ferilized?
The human egg is fertilized in the Fallopian Tube on it's travel to the uterus.
Where is the egg in a female developed fertilized and where does the fertilized egg develop?

Where is a human egg fertilized?
Usually in the womb but can also occur in the fallopian tube
Which part catches the fertilized egg and carries it to the uterus for implantation?
The fallopian tube
Where does a fertilized egg develop after leaves the fallopian tube?
It develops in the uterus if it is nurtured by sperm.
What is the function of fallopian tube?
=A tube which allows you to urinate.==The fallopian tube is the tube which connects the ovaries to the uterus. It is along this tube that ova travel. They can sometimes be fertilized in this tube and here to the wall and start to develop. This is known as an ectopic pregnancy.=
