What is the function of infundibulum with fimbriae?

The infundibulum is the funnel-shaped structure at the end of the fallopian tube, and its fimbriae are finger-like projections that help capture the released egg (ovum) from the ovary during ovulation. The fimbriae move in a rhythmic motion to create currents in the peritoneal fluid, guiding the egg into the infundibulum where it can then enter the fallopian tube for potential fertilization. This structure plays a crucial role in facilitating the passage of the egg towards the uterus.
