Which of the Following is NOT a Function of the Vagina

Question

Which of the following is NOT a function of the vagina?
A) serves as a passageway for the primary oocyte
B) receives semen from the penis during sexual intercourse
C) serves as a passageway for menstrual flow
D) is the birth canal

Accepted Answer

The primary oocyte is released from the ovary and travels down the fallopian tube, not through the vagina. The vagina does, however, serve as a passageway for the secondary oocyte after it has been fertilized and becomes an embryo that travels down the fallopian tube and into the uterus.
