The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement about ZIFT (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer) is incorrect, let's analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding ZIFT**: ZIFT stands for Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer, which is a technique used in assisted reproductive technology (ART). In this procedure, fertilization occurs in vitro (in a laboratory), and the resulting zygote is transferred into the fallopian tube. 2. **Analyzing the Statements**: - **Statement 1**: "It is a zygote in the fallopian transfer." - This statement is correct. ZIFT involves transferring a zygote into the fallopian tube. - **Statement 2**: "Zygote is transferred into the fallopian tube after IVF." - This statement is also correct. The zygote is indeed transferred to the fallopian tube after fertilization (IVF). - **Statement 3**: "Early embryos up to 8 blastomeres can also be transferred into the fallopian tube." - This statement is correct as well. ZIFT allows for the transfer of zygotes or embryos with up to 8 blastomeres. - **Statement 4**: "Embryos with more than 8 blastomeres are also transferred into the fallopian tubes." - This statement is incorrect. In ZIFT, typically only zygotes or embryos with up to 8 blastomeres are transferred; embryos with more than 8 blastomeres are usually transferred to the uterus in a different procedure known as IVF. 3. **Conclusion**: The incorrect statement is **Statement 4**: "Embryos with more than 8 blastomeres are also transferred into the fallopian tubes." ### Final Answer: The wrong statement about ZIFT is: **"Embryos with more than 8 blastomeres are also transferred into the fallopian tubes."** ---
