A woman is in her reproductive phase of life. Even when the sperms are available at the time of release of a mature ovum by her ovary, fertilisation does not take place. Due to this, the woman is unable to bear a baby.

b) Name the technique by which this woman can also have a baby.

Solution

  • In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a method used to help couples who can generate sperm and ovum but fertilisation cannot occur within the woman's body.
  • This can occur when the ovum cannot reach the site of fertilisation (fallopian tube) due to blocked fallopian tubes or oviducts.
