Solution

The correct option is A

True


Male circumcision is the removal of the foreskin from the human penis. The presence of foreskin has been proven to increase chances of cancer of the penis, and hence, in many western countries, circumcision, or removal of the foreskin covering the glans, is done at birth as a routine practice.
