I need to ask this question from Controlled Breeding Experiments topic in portion Strategies for Enhancement in Food Production of Biology – Class 12

Answer 1

The correct choice is (c) The animal is mated with a normal bull

The explanation: In MOET, a cow is administered hormones, with FSH like activity, to induce follicular maturation and superovulation-instead of one egg, which they normally yield per cycle, they produce 6-8 eggs. The animal is either mated with an elite bull or is artificially inseminated.
