Q. The part of fallopian tube closest to the ovary is :
(a) Ampulla
(b) Isthmus
(c) Infundibulum
(d) Cervix
Solution :
Correct option : C (a) The fallopian tube/oviduct/uterine tube is the muscular structure that connects the uterus with the ovary. Each fallopian tube consists of the following parts: isthmus, ampulla, and infundibulum. (b) The narrow, thick-walled part of the uterine tube, which is present next to the uterine part is called the isthmus while the thin-walled, dilated, and largest part of the uterine tube is the ampulla, which is connected to the isthmus at one end and the infundibulum to another end. (c) The funnel-shaped lateral end of the uterine tube is the infundibulum, which is connected to an outer pole of the ovary. Thus, the correct answer is option C
