If the sperms are too weak to fertilize the egg in the oviduct, which of the following procedure can be used to overcome this problem of infertility?
Correct answer: A. In-vitro fertilization
- A. In-vitro fertilization
- B. Incubation
- C. Hatching
- D. Amniocentesis
Explanation
Invitro fertilization is the technique in which an egg is fertilized by sperm in the tube outside the body. Sperm with poor motility can be used to fertilize eggs through IVF. By placing sperm and egg nearby in a petri dish, the poorly motile sperm do not have to travel far to reach the egg, and fertilization is controlled in the lab.
