Question

In which Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), Test Tube Baby procedure is applied?
A. Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT)
B. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
C. In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVFET)
D. Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT)

Answer 1

Assisted reproductive technology or ART is a technology that is being used to treat infertility. It includes fertility treatments that treat both a woman’s eggs and a man’s sperm. Assisted reproductive technology works by taking eggs from a woman’s body. These eggs, which were taken from women, are then mixed with sperm to form an embryo. Then, the embryo is put back into the body of women.

Complete answer:
Option A Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT): GIFT or Gamete intrafallopian transfer uses multiple eggs taken from the ovaries. The eggs are placed in a thin, flexible tube (catheter) with the sperm for use. The gametes, which are the eggs and sperm, are then injected into the fallopian tubes through a surgical procedure known as laparoscopy. Test tube baby procedure is not applicable in this procedure.
Hence option A is not correct.
Option B Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI): An in-vitro fertilization procedure in which a single sperm cell is injected directly into the cytoplasm of an egg is known as Intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection or ICSI. This technique is used to prepare gametes for embryos that can be transferred into the mother's uterus.
Since it does not involve test tube baby procedure, option B is not correct.
Option C In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVFET): In vitro fertilization or IVF is a fertilization process in which an egg is combined with a sperm outside the body, in a test tube. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a person's ovulation, removing an egg or egg (oocyte or egg) from their ovaries and letting the sperm fertilize it in a lab culture. experience. After the fertilized egg (zygote) has undergone embryo culture for two to six days, it is implanted in the uterus of the same or another person, with the aim of a successful pregnancy.
Since it involves the procedure of a test tube baby, option C is the correct answer.
Option D Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT): ZIFT or Zygote intrafallopian transfer combine in-vitro fertilization and GIFT. The eggs were stimulated and collected by IVF. Then the eggs are mixed with sperm, in a laboratory. The fertilized egg (zygote) is then sent back by endoscopy into the fallopian tubes, where it will be inserted into the uterus. ZIFT does not involve test tube baby procedure.
Hence option D is not correct.

Hence, Option C. In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVFET) is the correct answer

Note:
ART procedures sometimes use donor eggs, donor sperm, or previously frozen embryos. It can also be a surrogate mother or gestational carrier. A surrogate is a woman who becomes pregnant with sperm from the couple's male partner. The gestational carrier will get pregnant with eggs from the female partner and sperm from the male partner.
