Correct answer: (b) Zygote is collected from a female donor and transferred to the fallopian tube
Explanation:
- ZIFT (Zygote Intra Fallopian Transfer): The zygote or early embryos (up to 8 blastomeres) could then be transferred into the fallopian tube.
- Transfer of an ovum collected from a donor into the fallopian tube (GIFT: Gamete Intra Fallopian Transfer) of another female who cannot produce one but can provide suitable environment for fertilization and further development.
