A) Artificial insemination by a pedigreed bull only
B) Superovulation of a high production cow only
C) Embryo transplantation only
D) A combination of Superovulation, artificial insemination and embryo transplantation into a 'carrier cow' (surrogate mother)
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
[d] In superovulation, a high milk yielding cow is induced to shed 4-6 eggs (instead of one) every 6-8 weeks (instead of 20-21 days). The superovulated donor is artificially inseminated with semen from a quality bull. The embryos developing from the eggs so fertilised are flushed out. These good quality embryos are now transfered to surrogate mother for delivery.
