Solution
One of the assisted reproductive technology in which a sperm is directly injected into ovum is called ICSI.
Explanation:
ICSI (Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection) is an assisted reproductive technology in which a single sperm is directly injected into the ovum (egg) in the laboratory to achieve fertilization. This technique is especially useful in cases of severe male infertility where sperm count or motility is low or sperm cannot penetrate the egg naturally. Other options like GIFT and ZIFT involve placing gametes or zygotes in the fallopian tubes but do not involve direct injection of sperm into the ovum.
