The method of directly of injecting a sperm into ovum in assisted reproductive technology is called :
Options
- AEmbryo transfer (ET)
- BGamete intra fallopian transfer (GIFT)
- CZygote intra fallopian transfer (ZIFT)
- DIntra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
Correct answer
D. Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
Step-by-step solution
Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a specialized procedure in assisted reproductive technology (ART) where a single sperm is directly injected into the cytoplasm of an ovum to facilitate fertilization.
Embryo transfer (ET) involves transferring an embryo into the uterus or fallopian tube.
Gamete intra fallopian transfer (GIFT) involves the transfer of an ovum collected from a donor into the fallopian tube of another female who cannot produce one, but can provide suitable environment for fertilization.
Zygote intra fallopian transfer (ZIFT) involves the transfer of a zygote or early embryo (up to 8 blastomeres) into the fallopian tube.
Answer: Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
Embryo transfer (ET) involves transferring an embryo into the uterus or fallopian tube.
Gamete intra fallopian transfer (GIFT) involves the transfer of an ovum collected from a donor into the fallopian tube of another female who cannot produce one, but can provide suitable environment for fertilization.
Zygote intra fallopian transfer (ZIFT) involves the transfer of a zygote or early embryo (up to 8 blastomeres) into the fallopian tube.
