Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer (ZIFT) is an infertility treatment in which egg cells are removed from a woman's ovaries, and fertilized in the laboratory.
The resulting zygote is placed into the fallopian tube by the use of laparoscopy.
After fertilization in the laboratory the resulting early embryos or zygotes are placed into the woman's fallopian tubes using a laparoscope.

A zygote (Greek: ζυγωτόν) is a cell that is the result of fertilization.
That is, two haploid cells—usually (but not always) a sperm cell from a male and an ovum from a female—merge into a single diploid cell called the zygote (or zygocyte).
The vast majority of reputable medical opinion concurrs that the human zygote, from the moment of conception, is human life in its earliest form.

Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) is similar to IVF, but used when the woman has at least one normal fallopian tube.
Three to five eggs are placed in the fallopian tube, along with the man’s sperm, for fertilization inside the woman’s body.
The eggs retrieved from the woman’s ovaries are fertilized in the lab and placed in the fallopian tubes rather than the uterus.

These treatments can be through a lifestyle change, surgery, medication, or assisted reproduction.
There are several treatments under assisted reproduction such as In Vetro fertilization (IVF), gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT).
All of these procedures harvest a number of eggs hoping to fertilize at least one and then inserting the fertilized eggs into the uterus.

 Jewish Law - Articles ("Cloning People and Jewish Law: A Preliminary Analysis")
It divides and reproduces, and when implanted into the uterus of a gestational mother, the zygote will grow and develop into a fully formed fetus which will eventually be born from the uterus of its gestational mother.
It is important to recognize that in the current state of technology, all fertilized eggs -- including cloned ones -- are implanted in a uterus and are carried to term like all normal pregnancies.
From a halachic perspective, if IVF fulfills the mitzvah of being fruitful or its rabbinic cognate and establishes paternity, then all the remaining ones also logically must, as IVF involves the most activity outside the human body, in that fertilization occurs in a petri dish.
