Solution:

Have you heard of test tube babies?
some women’s oviducts are blocked. These women are unable to bear babies because sperm cannot reach the egg for fertilisation. In such cases, doctors collect freshly released eggs and sperm and keep them together for a few hours for IVF or in vitro fertilisation (fertilisation outside the body). In case fertilisation occurs, the zygote is allowed to develop for about a week and then it is placed in the mother’s uterus. Complete development takes place in the uterus and the baby is born like any other baby. Babies born through this technique are called test-tube babies. This term is misleading because babies cannot grow in test tubes.
