The uterine tube opens into:
Correct answer: C. Abdominal cavity
- A. Ovary
- B. Ureters
- C. Abdominal cavity
- D. None of these
Explanation
The uterine tubes, also known as fallopian tubes, are part of the female reproductive system. They extend from the uterus and open into the abdominal cavity near the ovaries. The fimbriae at the end of the tubes help capture the egg released by the ovary and guide it into the tube. While the uterine tubes are close to the ovaries, they do not directly open into them, nor are they connected to the ureters, which are part of the urinary system. Thus, the correct answer is that the uterine tube opens into the abdominal cavity.
