Answer 1

The correct option is A

IVF followed by embryo transfer

IVF followed by embryo transfer

The technique of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) involves combining a woman’s eggs (retrieved) and man’s sperm outside the body in the laboratory.

The zygote or embryo formed in vitro is transferred into the woman’s fallopian tube (zygote intra fallopian transfer) or uterus (intra uterine transfer) respectively for further development of the foetus. Hence, this technique will help a female have a baby who cannot conceive.

Final answer

a. IVF followed by embryo transfer
