The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the technique used to form an embryo in vitro by directly transferring the male gamete into the female, we can analyze the options provided: 1. **IUI (Intrauterine Insemination)**: This technique involves placing sperm directly into the uterus or vagina. However, fertilization occurs inside the female body, which means it is an in vivo process, not in vitro. Therefore, this option is incorrect. 2. **IUT (Intrauterine Transfer)**: This method involves transferring a zygote or early embryo (more than 8 blastomeres) into the uterus. The fertilization occurs in vivo, meaning this option is also incorrect. 3. **ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)**: This is a specialized technique where a single sperm is injected directly into an ovum (female gamete). The fertilization occurs in vitro, making this option correct for the question. 4. **GIFT (Gamete Intra Fallopian Transfer)**: In this method, gametes are transferred to the fallopian tube, where fertilization occurs in vivo. Hence, this option is incorrect. Based on the analysis, the correct answer to the question is **ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)**.
