The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the transfer of an early embryo with 8 blastomeres, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Process**: The question describes a scenario where fertilization occurs outside the female body, leading to the formation of a zygote. This process is known as in vitro fertilization (IVF). 2. **Formation of Blastomeres**: After fertilization, the zygote undergoes cell division. The question specifies that the zygote has divided to form 8 blastomeres. This indicates that the embryo is in the early stages of development. 3. **Transfer of the Embryo**: The question asks where this early embryo (with not more than 8 blastomeres) is transferred. In reproductive health, specifically in assisted reproductive technologies, the transfer location is crucial for the success of implantation and pregnancy. 4. **Identifying the Correct Location**: The options provided are: - A) Uterus - B) Fallopian tube - C) Cervix - D) Vagina 5. **Correct Answer**: In the case of an embryo with 8 blastomeres, it is typically transferred to the **Fallopian tube**. This procedure is known as Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer (ZIFT). The fallopian tube is chosen because it is where natural fertilization occurs and provides a suitable environment for the embryo to develop further. ### Final Answer: The early embryo with not more than 8 blastomeres is transferred into the **Fallopian tube** (Option B). ---
