As we have already discussed in Uterus & Vagina -

Uterus:

  • It is a hollow, muscular, vascular and large pear-shaped structure which is present in the pelvic region above the bladder. 
  • It can be divided into three parts – fundus, body and cervix.
  • The fundus is upper, the dome-shaped part above the opening of the fallopian tube. 
  • The middle and major part of the uterus is the body. It has three layers – outer peritoneal perimetrium, middle muscular myometrium and highly vascular endometrium. 
  • The lower narrow part which opens in the body of the uterus by internal os and in the vagina by external os is called the cervix.
  • The uterus is the site of foetal placentation, its growth and parturition.

 

Hence, the correct option is (a).
