The first is the study / minipulation of the genes...the second is the introduction of sperm to the egge by human intervention in a hospital...the latter has given some couples much joy in their life when the tiny infant comes into the world...(( oddly, some people frown on it as they do sperm donars)

What does the abbreviation IVF mean?

In Vitro Fertilization. The fertilization process is done manually.


How can the knowledge of the human genome be useful for in-vitro fertilization techniques?

Knowledge of the human genome in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) techniques can help identify genetic disorders or predispositions in embryos before implantation, allowing for the selection of healthier embryos. This preimplantation genetic testing can reduce the risk of passing on genetic diseases to the offspring. Additionally, understanding the genetic basis of infertility can help improve IVF success rates by tailoring treatment to individual genetic factors.


Can it be possible for fertilization to happen outside the female human body?

Fertilization that happens outside the female body is called in-vitro fertilization. In this procedure, the ova is fertilized with the sperm in a laboratory.


What can embryos be tested for?

Embryos can be tested for genetic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, and certain inherited conditions through preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). This can help identify any potential health issues before implantation during in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures.


What is the meaning of invetro fertilization?

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a fertility treatment where an egg is fertilized by sperm outside the body in a lab setting. The resulting embryo is then implanted into the uterus to establish a pregnancy. IVF is commonly used for couples struggling with infertility or genetic disorders.

Genetic engineering involves the use of recombinant DNA technology, the process by which a DNA sequence is manipulated in vitro, thus creating recombinant DNA molecules that have new combinations of genetic material


What is the name of the procedure where fertilization is accomplished in lab dish and then inside womans oviducts?

In vitro fertilization. Vitro is from the Latin word for glass.

Can I use a in vitro pregnancy test even if I am not trying an in vitro pregnancy?

Yes. In vitro means, "in glass" or "outside of the body", and In vitro pregnancy test is a test that is performed "outside" of the human body. In vitro fertilization is egg fertilization that is performed outside of the body. All home pregnancy tests are "in vitro".
