Solution

The correct option is C Both the statements are correct
A condom is a covering worn over penis during the sexual intercourse. It creates a mechanical barrier so that sperm does not reach the egg. In this way, it acts as a contraceptive as well as a protection against sexually transmitted diseases, like syphilis.

Loop and copper-T are called intra-uterine devices as they are placed inside the uterus to prevent pregnancy.
