Question
Where does secondary maturation of oocyte take place? a. Ovary b. abdominal cavity c. Fallopian tube d. Uterus
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Secondary maturation refers to the completion of meiosis II. The secondary oocyte is arrested at metaphase II. It only completes meiosis II if fertilization occurs. Fertilization typically takes place in the fallopian tube. Therefore, the secondary maturation of the oocyte (completion of meiosis II) occurs in the fallopian tube.
Hint
This is where the sperm meets the egg, and the egg finishes its final division.
