Simple columnar epithelial cells, some ciliated, line the uterine tube. The epithelium secretes mucus, and the cilia beat toward the uterus. These actions help draw the secondary oocyte and expelled follicular fluid into the infundibulum following ovulation. Ciliary action and peristaltic contractions of the uterine tube's muscular layer help transport the secondary oocyte down the uterine tube.

The cilia beat in waves hundreds of times a second catching the egg at ovulation and moving it through the tube to the uterine cavity. The cilia move the egg along the length of the 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.=
Once the follicle erupts and the egg escapes, it enters the fallopian tube. Cilia on the lining of the fallopian tubes push the egg along on it's way to the uterus. If the egg is fertilized while on its way to the uterus, it implants in the endometrium when it reaches the uterus. If it is not fertilized, it is shed in the monthly menstruation cycle.
The sperm and egg usually meet along the fallopian tube that connects the ovaries and uterus. The fertilized egg continues to travel towards the uterus where it implants in the tissue lining.
another name for an oviduct is Fallopian Tube.
The cilia beat in waves hundreds of times a second catching the egg at ovulation and moving it through the tube to the uterine cavity. The cilia move the egg along the length of the Fallopian tube.
cilia
they are called cilia cells, they sway from side to side and sweep the egg down the fallopian tube.
It is a finger-like projection at the end of a Fallopian tube. Before ovulation, sex hormones activate the fimbriae causing it to swell with blood and gently hit the ovary in a sweeping motion. An oocyte is released from the ovary and the cilia of the fimbriae will sweep the ovum into the fallopian tube.
You can't actively "help" an egg move through the fallopian tube. It does it on it's own, regardless of what you do. I think what the question is asking is what part of the body. Although YOU can't, there are cilia that line the inside of the fallopian tube that help to guide it out.
The uterine tube is called the fallopian tube and the lining is made up of tiny hairlike, fingers called fimbria. The fimbria move the developing embryo along the fallopian tube to the uterus where it will embed itself. Here it will grow and develop until it is ready to be born in about 9-10 months..
Near the ovary you have fimbriated end of the Fallopian tube. It take in the ovum inside. Then you have cilia in the Fallopian tube to push the ovum towards the uterus.
No. Fallopian tubes exist only in women. Sperm is produced only by men.
The parts of the body that have ciliated columnar epithelium include the nose, the trachea, and the uterine tube. The cilia in the nose and trachea help expel foreign particles that should not enter the lungs while the cilia in the uterine tube help move the egg and sperm to the Fallopian tube.
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.
to move material further down the tube. ie from the infundibulum to the ampulla
Your fallopian tubes are lined with tiny hair-like structures called cilia which are constantly swaying back and forth to help guide the egg and push it along to the uterus :)
