Question

The process, by which transfer of zygote or early embryo (up to 8 blastomeres) into fallopian tube takes place, is called ______.
A) IVF and ET
B) ZIFT
C) GIFT
D) IUT

Answer 1

Hint: The method known as ZIFT (Zygote intra fallopian transfer) involves transferring a zygote or an early embryo (with up to 8 blastomeres) into the fallopian tube.

Complete Step by Step Answer:
Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT): This procedure involves fertilising a woman's egg outside of her body and implanting the resulting zygote inside one of her fallopian tubes. One strategy for overcoming infertility, or a couple's inability to have children on their own, is this one.
Similar to GIFT, zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) also utilises in vitro fertilisation (IVF). IVF techniques are used to stimulate and collect eggs. The sperm and eggs are then mixed together in a lab. The fertilised eggs (zygotes) are then returned to the fallopian tubes by laparascopic surgery.
IVF involves taking mature eggs out of the ovaries and fertilising them with sperm in a lab. A uterus is then reached by the fertilised egg (or eggs). Approximately three weeks pass between IVF cycles. When these processes are divided into separate parts, they can occasionally take longer.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.

Note: Blood is given to a foetus during an intrauterine transfusion (IUT), most frequently through the umbilical cord. It is applied in cases of severe foetal anaemia, such as when maternal antibodies are destroying foetal red blood cells. Perinatologists perform IUTs at hospitals or specialised facilities.
