Answer 1

The correct option is A Tubectomy

• Tubectomy or female sterilization is the most popular method of contraception. It is a surgical procedure in which a woman's fallopian tubes are clamped and blocked or severed and sealed, either method of which prevents eggs from reaching the uterus for implantation.
• Vasectomy or male sterilization is where the vasa deferentia are severed and sealed.
• Adenoid glands are part of the immune system and help protect the body from viruses and bacteria. An adenoidectomy is a surgery to remove the adenoids because they have become swollen or enlarged because of an infection or allergies.
• An embolectomy is a surgery to remove an embolus from an artery or vein. An embolus is part of a blood clot that broke free. It can travel through your bloodstream and become stuck in another area.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
