Solution

The correct option is B Zygote intra fallopian transfer(ZIFT)
The test-tube baby programme refers to the process of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. This is done by a technique called ZIFT (zygote intrafallopian transfer). In this oocyte and sperms are taken and fertilization takes place outside the female's body i.e. in vitro. Early embryo with more than 8 blastomeres is transferred to the fallopian tube.
So the correct option is ' zygote intra fallopian transfer(ZIFT) '.
