Defecation is a reflex that has both involuntary and voluntary components. The involuntary storage of faeces in the rectum includes the relaxation of the internal anal sphincter. In contrast, the desire to defecate is an intentional procedure that requires the decision to relax the external anal sphincter. The solidification of faeces in the rectum creates a neurological reflex that causes the need to defecate, however the decision to defecate is voluntary. As a result, both Statements I and II are correct.

Option a is the correct answer.
