GIFT involves

A SUBRAMANYAM · Accepted Answer

## CORE INFORMATION
✓ **Answer**: C
## CONCEPT FRAMEWORK
	**Primary Concept**: Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
	**Related Topics**: In vitro fertilization (IVF), Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT), Intrauterine insemination (IUI)
	**Prerequisites**: Basic understanding of human reproduction and reproductive technologies.
## SOLUTION PATHWAY
**Given Information**:
	The question asks about the procedure involved in GIFT.
**Method & Steps**:
	1. **Understanding GIFT**: GIFT stands for Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer.
		Reasoning: The name itself suggests the transfer of gametes.
	2. **Procedure of GIFT**: In GIFT, both the collected oocytes (eggs) and sperm are transferred into the fallopian tubes.
		Working: This allows fertilization to occur naturally inside the woman's body, unlike IVF where fertilization happens outside the body.
		Key Point:  The fallopian tubes must be healthy for GIFT to be successful.
	3. **Matching with options**: Option C correctly describes the transfer of gametes into the fallopian tube.
		Result: Option C
		Verification: This aligns with the definition of GIFT.
## OPTION ANALYSIS
[A] :x: In vitro fertilization (IVF) involves fertilization outside the body, in a laboratory dish.  The fertilized egg (zygote) or embryo is then transferred to the uterus. 
[B] :x: Transfer of embryo up to the eight-blastomere stage into the fallopian tube describes ZIFT (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer).  In GIFT, gametes (not embryos) are transferred.
[C] ✓: This option correctly describes GIFT as the transfer of gametes into the fallopian tube.
[D] :x: Transfer of semen into the uterus describes Intrauterine Insemination (IUI).  In GIFT, both gametes are transferred directly into the fallopian tube.
## LEARNING AIDS
	**Common Mistakes**:
		1. Confusing GIFT with other ART procedures like IVF, ZIFT, and IUI: Carefully note the differences in the location of fertilization and the stage of reproductive cells transferred.
		2. Misinterpreting the meaning of 'gametes': Gametes are the reproductive cells, sperm in males and oocytes (eggs) in females. 
	**Quick Tips**:
		1. Remember GIFT as 'Gametes In Fallopian Tube'.
		2. Differentiate ART procedures based on where fertilization occurs (in vivo vs. in vitro) and what is transferred (gametes, zygote, or embryo).
