the zygote

the epididymus

Explanation

Sperm is the male reproductive cell, and the corresponding female reproductive cell is an ovum, or egg cell. A zygote forms when a sperm and an ovum combine; the vagina and epididymis are reproductive organs, not reproductive cells. Therefore, the correct choice is the ovum.
