A - Condom for female, B Implant, C CuT, D - Condom for male

B
A Implant, B CuT, C - Condom for female, D - Condom for male

Solution

With reference to the given diagram,
the correct option is 'A - Condom for male, B Implant, C CuT, D - Condom for female'.
Question 3
1 / -0

Progestin-estradiol combined contraceptive pills inhibit ovulation by

A
negative feedback on the release of estrogen from ovary required for follicular development in follicular phase

B
preventing the uterine physiological and morphological changes required far implantation

C
inhibiting the secretion of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH) that are necessary for ovulation

D
both (a) and (c).

Solution

The presence of progesterone and estrogen prevent the secretion of Follicle Stimulating hormone and Luteinising hormone that are required for maturation of primary follicle and ovulation from the Graffian follicle.
So, the correct option is 'inhibiting the secretion of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH) that are necessary for ovulation'.
Question 4
1 / -0

The most important component of oral contraceptive pills is

A
progesterone estrogen

B
growth hormone

C
thyroxine

D
luteinising hormone.

Solution

Oestrogen and progestogen stop formation of eggs and no egg is released from the ovary.
Hence, oral contraceptive pills consist of Estrogen and progesterone those prevent ovulation.
So, the correct option is 'progesterone estrogen'.
Question 5
1 / -0

Which of the following statements are correct regarding surgical methods of contraception?
(i) These are generally advised to the male/female partner as a terminal method to prevent any more pregnancies.
(ii) Surgical procedure in males is called tubectomy and that in the female vasectomy.
(iii) Reversibility is easily possible.
(iv) They block gamete transport and thereby prevent conception.

A
(ii) and (iii)

B
(i), (ii) and (iii)

C
(i) and (iv)

D
(ii) and (iv)
Solution
- Surgical (sterilization) methods of contraception prevent pregnancy by blocking gamete transport and hence their fertilization.
- The surgical method in males is called vasectomy and in females, it is called tubectomy. Both methods are very effective but their reversibility is very poor.
- They are generally regarded as terminal methods to prevent any more pregnancies.
- So, the correct answer is option C.
Question 6
1 / -0

Choose the correct answer among the alternatives given :
Which of the following contraceptives are implanted under the skin?

A

B

C

D

Solution

Figure (d) is of hormone implants. These are six matchstick-sized capsules containing synthetic progesterone which are implanted subcutaneously under the skin of the inner arm above the elbow. The capsules slowly release the progesterone for about five years. This blocks ovulation (by inhibiting the release of FSH and LH from pituitary) and thickens the cervical mucus to prevent sperm transport.
So, the correct answer is 'Option D'.
Question 7
1 / -0

Which of the following is the most widely accepted method of contraception in India at present?

A
Cervical caps

B
Tubectomy

C
Diaphragms

D
IUDs (Intrauterine devices)
Solution
- The most prevalent form of contraception used in India includes IUDs followed by barrier methods and then the contraceptive method.
- These Intra-Uterine Devices (IUDs) are presently available as the non-medicated IUDs (e.g., lippes loop), copper releasing IUDs (CuT, Cu7, Multi load 375), and the hormones releasing IUDs (Progestasert, LNG-20).
- IUDs increase phagocytosis of sperms within the uterus and the Cu-ions released suppress sperm motility and the fertilizing capacity of sperms.
So, the correct answer is option D.
Question 8
1 / -0

Which of the following statements is correct with reference to a test tube baby?

A
Fertilisation of the egg is completed outside the body; the fertilised egg is then placed in the womb of the mother where the gestation is completed.

B
Fertilisation of the egg is completed in the female genital tract. It is then taken out and grown in a large test tube.

C
A prematurely born baby is reared in an incubator.

D
Fertilisation of the egg and growth of the embryo is completed in a large test tube.

Solution

In test tube baby or in vitro fertilisation technique, the ovum is fertilised with the sperm outside the body of a woman providing the ovum with the same environmental conditions as it would have got inside the uterus. The zygote formed is grown inside a culture and when embryo (having 8 or more blastomeres) is formed, it is then implanted into uterus where it develops into foetus. So, the correct answer is 'Fertilisation of the egg is completed outside the body, the fertilised egg is then placed in the womb of the mother where the gestation is completed'.
Question 9
1 / -0

Read the following statements.
(i) Birth control pills are likely to cause cardiovascular problems.
(ii) A woman who substitutes or takes the place -of the real mother to nurse the embryo is called surrogate mother.

A
(i) and (ii)

B
(ii) and (iv)

C
(iii) and (v)

D
None of these

Solution

Numerous children have been produced by in vitro fertilisation without any abnormality. Foetal sex determination test should be banned as it is being misused for female foeticide.
