Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The optimal "window of opportunity" to conceive a child is a few days before ovulation to less than a day after. This is because sperm can live in the female reproductive tract for several days, waiting for an egg to be released (ovulation), but an egg is viable for fertilization for only about 12-24 hours after ovulation.
