Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
In gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), sperm and ovum are placed in the ampullary portion of the fallopian tube, where fertilization occurs naturally.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
All of these methods use different approaches in an effort to determine when the woman is most fertile so that sexual intercourse can be avoided during that time. The calendar and basal body temperature (BBT) methods are affected by stress and illness. BBT requires taking the temperature every morning before arising. The cervical mucus method requires learning to recognize mucus characteristics at various stages of the menstrual cycle.
