CLEAN : Three parent baby born in Ukraine using new technique

The video discusses a method used to prevent mitochondrial disease transmission by transferring the pronucleus into a donor egg, resulting in a reconstructed embryo. This method is rare and applicable to a small percentage of women visiting reproductive clinics.

What is the primary purpose of the method discussed in the video?

• To increase embryo viability

• To improve genetic diversity

• To prevent mitochondrial disease transmission

• To enhance fertility rates

What is transferred in the donor egg during the method?

• The entire nucleus

• The mitochondrial DNA

• The cytoplasm

• The pronucleus

What does the reconstructed embryo consist of?

• The donor's mitochondrial DNA only

• The donor's nucleus and cytoplasm

• The parents' nucleus and donor's cytoplasm

• The parents' cytoplasm and donor's nucleus

Approximately how many women might need this method in reproductive clinics?

• 1 in 151 to 200

• 1 in 100

• 1 in 500

• 1 in 50

Why is the condition considered rare?

• Because it is not well understood

• Because it is easily treatable

• Because it affects only a small percentage of the population

• Because it is a newly discovered condition
