Artificial insemination

Artificial insemination (of animals): Sperm cells are collected from a male organism and transferred so it comes into directed contact with a female egg forming a zygote, this concept is known as artificial insemination. Utilization of said method results in: reduced disease transmission, increased selection of desired traits, decreased costs, increased safety in relation to fauna. Artificial insemination allows for desired traits to be passed from parents to offspring creating a genetically efficient organism, however, less favorable traits may be passed onwards causing the occurrence of diseases to increase.The benefits include: decreased stress, fertilisation of more females than that could arise naturally, fertilisation can occur when the…

Artificial insemination is a cell fusion from outside the body. It requires fertilization but not mating and is when sperm is collected from the male and inserted into the female’s vagina for fertilization to occur. This procedure of Insemination increases the chance that the sperm will fertilize an egg. It is advantageous in situations where it is costly or difficult to bring the male or female together of if natural conception cannot happen. For example, sperm can be collected from a good,…

1.Introduction Artificial insemination (AI), is a procedure often used in livestock production to facilitate and maximize breeding rates. The first official AI was performed on a bitch in 1784. by an Italian physiologist by the name of Lazzaro Spallanzaniand resulted in the birth of 3 puppies (Ombelet & Van Robays 2015). According to Donoghue & Wishart (2000), in commercial avian species, AI has been a significant reproduction since the 1960’s, namely in commercial turkeys due to increasing size…

incur costs from $1000-$100,000! It is a major expense for those who are seeking to find a way to achieve a priceless experience – having children. In class, we mainly discussed 4 different types of reproductive technology – artificial insemination by donor (AID), in vitro and in vivo fertilization, and surrogacy. Before this lecture, I had not formally researched any of these topics, and had only either minimally heard about it or glanced through an article. In addition, we did not only talk…

marital status or sexual orientation are (Armour, 2012), they could seek help from surrogacy agencies in those places. Surrogacy is an arrangement that a surrogate mother carries an embryo and subsequent birthing of a baby for an intended couple who is unable to conceive babies by themselves. It seems that surrogacy is a solution to create a new member in a family. Although the birth of a baby is believed as a blessed event for families, it could become the beginning of nightmare to children at…

Legalizing compensation for surrogate motherhood promotes options for women who remain childless. There are two different types of surrogacy, IVF and traditional surrogacy (Szoke 2). Traditional surrogacy means the introduction of semen into a woman by having sexual intercourse or artificial insemination where the sperm is put into the woman. When a surrogate mother performs this, she will always have a genetic connection to the child. IVF surrogacy stands for In Vitro Fertilization. IVF…

substitute mother in place of the natural mother” (Mondal 189-193). Surrogacy can be used for both commercially financial or altruistic reasoning. I personally favor it when it 's used altruistically because the surrogate does it out of the pure kindness of her heart without looking for any gain. Surrogacy is a very broad term because there are such things as gestational surrogacies and traditional surrogacies. The type of surrogacy that I would like to focus on is the traditional type.…
