Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
(A) Amniocentesis — this matches (III) Process to test genetic disorders in foetus. A little amniotic fluid is taken, and the chromosomes of the foetal cells in it are studied. Its misuse to find the sex of the foetus is banned.
(B) MMR — this matches (I) Maternal mortality rate. MMR measures how many mothers die from causes linked to pregnancy and childbirth. Better health care has brought it down.
(C) Periodic abstinence — this matches (IV) Natural method of contraception. The couple avoid coitus from day 10 to 17 of the menstrual cycle, when ovulation is expected. No device or drug is used.
(D) Vasectomy — this matches (II) Surgical method of contraception. It is sterilisation in the male. A small part of the vas deferens is removed or tied up through a small cut on the scrotum.
