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.

What is the function of the cilia in the lining of the fallopian tube?
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. Hole's A&P page 519
Is the uterine tube and the fallopian tube the same?
Yes, it is known by both names.
In the uterine tube shortly after sperm penetration?
oogonium
What tube carries eggs to uterus?
The Fallopian tubes.
Why does Fertilization usually occurs in the outer one-third of the uterine tube?
yes
Function of cilia in uterine tube?
to move material further down the tube. ie from the infundibulum to the ampulla

How does the structure of the uterine tube move the egg toward the uterus?
The uterine tube is lined with cilia. These small hair-like projections sweep the egg toward the uterus.
What types of tissue can have cilia?
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.
How is the oocyte transported from the ovary to the uterus?
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.
What are the structure for the pathway of a secondary oocyte?
In what order does the pathway of a second Oocyte ampulla of uterine, body of uterus, fimbriae of uterine tube, fundus of uterus, infundibulum of uterine tube, isthmus of uterine tube and ovary

What movements aid an egg down 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.
What are the hairs called on the fallopian tube?
cilia
What is the function of cilia in a bacteria cell?
Bacteria do not have cilia. They have fimbriae and flagella.
Where fertilization happens?
ampulla of the uterine tube.
Is the uterine tube and the fallopian tube the same?
Yes, it is known by both names.
