The correct option is A Ovum collected from a donor into the fallopian tube of another woman

Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) is a tool of assisted reproductive technology against infertility. Eggs are removed from a woman's ovaries, and placed in one of the fallopian tubes, along with the man's sperm.

The zygote into the fallopian tube - ZIFT.

The early embryos with upto 8 blastomeres into the uterus - Embryo transfer.

Sperm from husband or a donor into the cytoplasm of the ovum - Intracytoplasmic sperm injection.
