Test tube baby is one who

1. is born out of artificial insemination
2. has undergone development in a test tube
3. is born out of the technique of fertilization in vitro
4. has been developed without fertilization

Correct answer: is born out of the technique of fertilization in vitro

Solution

A “test tube baby” is produced by in vitro fertilization, where the egg and sperm unite outside the body and the embryo is then transferred to the uterus. It does not mean the baby develops in a test tube or that fertilization is absent.
