Q9.

Statement II: In intra uterine transfer, embryo more than 8 blastomeres are transferred to uterus.


Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Q10. Gamete intra fallopian transfer (GIFT) is useful for
a. Female that does not produce eggs or ovum but can provide suitable environment for fertilisation and further development.
b. Female that have blocked fallopian tube that carry ovum and fertilized egg to uterus.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Some infertile females are not able to produce ovum or egg but can provide suitable medium for fertilisation and further development of embryo. In such females gamete intra fallopian transfer technique is used to conceive.
