secreting hormones necessary for pregnancy.
secreting the egg from the ovary
connecting the uterus to the vagina

Explanation:

The fallopian tubes have two main functions. First, they transport the egg (ovum) released from the ovary. Second, they are the site where fertilization (the union of sperm and egg) occurs.

• Producing estrogen and progesterone is mainly the function of the ovaries.
• Secretion of hormones necessary for pregnancy is more related to structures like the corpus luteum (after ovulation in the ovary) and later the placenta.
• The ovary secretes the egg (ovulation), not the fallopian tube.
• The cervix connects the uterus to the vagina.

Answer:

Transporting the egg from the ovary to the uterus, and being the site of fertilization.
