Yes, there is peristalsis in the oviduct (fallopian tube), which helps transport the ovum from the ovary to the uterus. The smooth muscle layers in the oviduct contract rhythmically, facilitating the movement of the egg and any accompanying sperm. This peristaltic action is essential for successful fertilization and subsequent embryo transport.

Where does a zygote travel fom the oviduct?
A zygote travels from the oviduct to the uterus for implantation and further development into an embryo. This journey is facilitated by ciliary movement in the oviduct and uterine contractions.

Function of the oviduct?
The oviduct is a tube that serves to transport the egg from the ovary to the uterus. Fertilization usually occurs within the oviduct, and it also provides a suitable environment for early embryonic development. Additionally, the oviduct helps in the transportation of the embryo towards the uterus for implantation.
How does an egg travel along the oviduct?
At ovulation, the egg is released into the abdominal cavity near the funnel-like opening of the oviduct. Cilia on the epithelial lining of the duct help collect the egg by drawing fluid from the body cavity into the oviduct. Together with the wave-like contraction of the of oviduct, the cilia convey the egg down the duct to the uterus.
