Question:

Assertion: In barrier methods, ovum and sperms are prevented from physically meeting with the help of barriers.
Reason: Nirodh is a popular brand of IUDs for the male.

Options:

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is not correct.

Both Assertion (A) and Reason are false (F ).

Correct Answer:

Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is not correct.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) – Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is not correct.

 

  • Assertion (A) is True: Barrier methods (such as condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps) work on the principle of creating a physical block that prevents the sperm from reaching and fertilizing the ovum.

  • Reason (R) is False: While Nirodh is a very popular brand, it is a brand of condoms (a barrier method for males), not an IUD (Intrauterine Device). IUDs are contraceptive devices like Lippes loop or Copper-T that are inserted by doctors into the female uterus.
