A.	Chemical	p.	Tubectomy and Vasectomy
B.	IUDs	q.	Copper T and Loop
C.	Barriers	r.	Condom and Cervical cap
D.	Sterilization	s.	Spermicidal Jelly and foam
		t.	Coitus interruptus and calendar method

• A. A = s, B = q, C = r, D = p
• B. A = s, B = t, C = q, D = r
• C. A = p, B = r, C = q, D = t
• D. A = s, B = q, C = t, D = p

Answer 1

The correct option is A A = s, B = q, C = r, D = p

• There are various different methods that can be used in birth control.
• Spermicidal Jelly and foam are the chemical forms of birth control. These contain chemical components that are able to destroy or kill the sperms.

IUDs are Intrauterine devices that are placed in the uterine cavity.

This contains the copper-T and loop. This prevents fertilization or implantation.

• Condom and cervical cap are mechanical barriers. This prevents the entry of the sperm in the vaginal canal.
• Tubectomy and vasectomy are surgical methods. These methods are permanent forms of birth control.
• These lead to sterilization. This method prevents fertilization of the egg and sperm.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
