A) vagina
B) oviduct
C) cervix
D) urethra
E) uterus

Accepted Answer

The oviduct, also known as the fallopian tube, is the structure in females that is analogous in function to the vas deferens in males. Both structures are responsible for transporting gametes (sperm in males, and eggs in females) from their site of production (testes in males, ovaries in females) to the site of fertilization (seminal vesicles in males, uterus in females).
