Solution

The correct option is C

Diaphragms


Diaphragms are round latex caps with coil springs. These caps are fitted deep in the vagina, on the mouth of the cervix. A diaphragm keeps sperm from entering the uterus by covering the cervix. For added protection, spermicide is put into the bowl of the diaphragm and along its edges before it's inserted.
