Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described is in vitro fertilization (IVF), which involves fertilizing an egg in a culture dish outside of the body and then implanting the resulting embryo into the uterus. Surrogacy involves a woman carrying a pregnancy for another individual or couple, but it does not necessarily involve IVF. In vitro insemination is not a commonly used term and does not accurately describe the process described. Ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovary, which is a necessary step in IVF but does not describe the entire process.
