What happens to the egg once it is being released from the ovary?

Answer 1

The uterus

Answer 2

An ovum is released into the fallopian tube (where it may be fertilized by sperm from the male or not) ovum will then continue traveling down the fallopian tube it reaches the uterus. When it arrives, and if it has been fertilized by sperm, it attaches itself to the lining of the uterus and continues to grow.

If the ovum is not fertilized it will die, this will cause progesterone and oestrogen hormone levels will drop. Without these hormones the lining that covers the uterus in preparation for receiving the fertilized egg breaks up and is released through the vagina. This is known as a 'period' or menstrual bleeding.

In the case that egg is fertilized, the implantation of the embryo produces another hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (H.C.G.) which tells the ovary to continue to produce progesterone. H.C.G. This is the hormone that pregnancy tests are designed to detect. Progesterone continues to be secreted during pregnancy, first by the corpus luteum and then by the placenta, until the child is born. Progesterone blocks the release of the hormones, which are responsible for ovulation so that further eggs are not released during pregnancy and normally no more periods happen during this time.

Answer 3

Once an egg is released from the ovary it travels down the fallopian tubes.
If the egg is fertilized by sperm it will travel to the uterus, it implants thus resulting in pregnancy.
If the egg isn't fertilized then it goes no further than the fallopian tube and is reabsorbed into the body.

Answer 4

the falopion tube (sorry about the spelling). Try "Fallopian".

Answer 5

When an egg is released from the ovary it first enters the fallopian tubes and then travels down to the uterus where it implants into the uterine wall.

Answer 6

It descends the Fallopian tube.
