Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A) Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection

Solution:

Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a specialized form of in vitro fertilization (IVF) that is particularly useful in cases where the male partner has a very low sperm count. In ICSI, a single sperm is directly injected into an egg to facilitate fertilization, which can significantly increase the chances of successful conception in such cases.
