Select the correct statement.
One oviduct forms the uterus.
Many eggs are produced every month by the ovary.
The fallopian tube is also known as womb.
When a girl is born, the ovaries already contain thousands of immature eggs.
When a girl is born, the ovaries already contain thousands of immature eggs.
Eliminate clearly false statements based on standard anatomy: oviducts do not form the uterus, only one egg is typically released per cycle, and the womb is the uterus, not the fallopian tube.

Eliminate clearly false statements based on standard anatomy: oviducts do not form the uterus, only one egg is typically released per cycle, and the womb is the uterus, not the fallopian tube.
Confusing the term 'womb' with the 'fallopian tube'; the womb is the common term for the uterus.
Analyze statement A
The statement 'One oviduct forms the uterus' is incorrect. The oviducts (Fallopian tubes) lead to the uterus, which is a separate organ.
OviductюАа=Uterus
Analyze statement B
The statement 'Many eggs are produced every month by the ovary' is incorrect. Typically, only one mature egg (ovum) is released per menstrual cycle.
Eggper┬аcycle=1
Analyze statement C
The statement 'The fallopian tube is also known as womb' is incorrect. The uterus is known as the womb.
Uterus=Womb
Analyze statement D
The statement 'When a girl is born, the ovaries already contain thousands of immature eggs' is correct. Female infants are born with a finite number of primary oocytes.
OocytesтЙИ1тИТ2millionatbirth
D is correct because female mammals are born with their entire lifetime supply of immature eggs (oocytes) already present in their ovaries.
Understanding the finite nature of germ cells in females is a key topic in both human physiology and evolutionary biology.
