Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fallopian tubes transport the ovum from the ovary to the uterus, provide a nourishing environment for the ovum or zygote, and are the site where fertilization typically occurs. They do not secrete large amounts of estrogens (that's primarily the ovaries' role) nor are they involved in supporting and protecting pelvic contents in the way described.
