    Direction Read the following and answer the questions from given below
    Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) refers to treatment and procedures that aim to achieve pregnancy. These complex procedures may be an option for people who have already gone through various infertility treatment options but who still have not achieved pregnancy. The main type of ART is In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF). IVF involves extracting a womans eggs, fertilising the eggs in the laboratory and then transferring the resulting embryos into the woman's uterus through the cervix. ART success rates vary in the context of patient and treatment characteristics, such as age, infertility diagnosis, number of embryos transferred, type of ART procedure, use of techniques such as ICSI and history of previous births, miscarriages and ART cycles.

    A) it is an expensive technique, hence only few people can afford it
