Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The correct path of sperm through the female reproductive tract is vagina → cervix → uterus → oviduct. Option A and B are incorrect because the urethra is not part of the female reproductive tract and sperm does not pass through it. Option D is incorrect because sperm cannot enter the uterus directly from the urethra. Option E is incorrect because sperm must pass through the cervix before entering the fallopian tube (oviduct).
