Fertilization takes place in fallopian tube. Explanation: • Fertilization takes place in the fallopian tube (specifically at the ampullary-isthmic junction). • During fertilization, the sperm meets the ovum in the fallopian tube after traveling through the female genital tract starting from the vagina. • The ovum, a secondary oocyte surrounded by follicle cells (corona radiata), is released from the ovary and moves into the fallopian tube. • The sperm undergoes capacitation in the fallopian tube to become capable of fertilizing the ovum. • One sperm penetrates the ovum to form a zygote, initiating embryonic development.
