Match the Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) with their correct descriptions:
I. Collected gametes are made to form the zygote in the laboratory.
II. Zygote or early embryo with upto 8 blastomeres is transferred into the oviduct.
III. Zygote with more than 8 blastomeres is transferred into the uterus.
IV. Fusion of gametes within the female.
V. Transfer of ovum from a donor to the oviduct of the recipient.
VI. Sperm is injected into the ovum in-vitro.

Accepted Answer

- GIFT (Gamete Intra Fallopian Transfer) corresponds to Statement V: Transfer of an ovum collected from a donor into the fallopian tube (oviduct) of another female who cannot produce one but can provide a suitable environment.
- ZIFT (Zygote Intra Fallopian Transfer) corresponds to Statement II: Zygote or early embryo (up to 8 blastomeres) is transferred into the fallopian tube.
- ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) corresponds to Statement VI: A specialised procedure where a sperm is directly injected into the ovum.
- IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation) corresponds to Statement I.
- IUT (Intra Uterine Transfer) corresponds to Statement III.
- In vivo fertilisation corresponds to Statement IV.
