| 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. |
| (iv) Assertion [A] Both ZIFT and IUT are embryo transfer techniques. |
| Reason (R) In both ZIFT and IUT, the number of cells in zygote is same. |
A) If both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
B) If both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
C) If A is true, but R is false
D) If both A and Rare false
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
[c] A is true, but R is false because ZIFT (Zygote Intra Fallopian Transfer) is the technique in which zygote or early embryo with up to 8 blastomeres is transferred into the Fallopian tube of female. Whereas in IUT, embryo with more than 8 blastomeres is transferred into the uterus. Thus, difference between ZIFT and IUT lies in number of the cells of the zygote.
