Solution

The correct option is C artificial breeding
In the process of artificial breeding, no natural mating occurs between the male and female organisms but the breeding is controlled by many different artificial methods.

MOET (Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology) is the technique in which multiple eggs are fertilized in an animal and the embryos are collected. It is the traditional method of embryo production and is practised in cattle.

In the process of MOET, the hormones, especially the Follicle Stimulating Hormones are used to stimulate the ovaries of the cycling cattle to induce multiple ovulations. The animal is artificially inseminated and multiple eggs are fertilized in the reproductive tract. After about 7 days, the embryos are collected and frozen to transfer later. They may also be transferred as fresh embryos.
