Question

Read the sources given and answer any four from the questions given below:

For the good health of females and to control overpopulation, a number of scientific methods are advised for birth control. These include barrier, chemical and surgical methods. Barrier methods prevent ovum and sperm to physically meet by putting a barrier between them. These include physical devices like condoms in males and diaphragms in females. Chemical methods can be by use of pills or intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCD) like copper T which releases copper that prevents implantation of ovum in uterus. The surgical methods like vasectomy and tubectomy block the transport of gametes. Vasectomy is performed in males. It is cutting and tying of vas deferens to prevent sperms to reach urethra. Tubectomy is performed in females. It is cutting and tying of fallopian tubes to prevent eggs to reach the uterus.
