The fallopian tubes are a pair of narrow tubes that connect the ovaries to the uterus in the female reproductive system. Their main function is to transport eggs from the ovaries to the uterus, where fertilization can occur. The fallopian tubes also provide a site for fertilization to take place, as sperm can travel up the tubes to meet the egg. Additionally, the fallopian tubes help to nourish and transport the fertilized egg (embryo) to the uterus for implantation and development.
