(i) The use of a condom is beneficial for both partners in a sexual act because it can help prevent sexually transmitted infections. Condoms act as a barrier and help prevent the transmission of HIV and gonorrhea.

(ii) Oral contraceptives prevent ovulation so no egg is released for fertilization. It thickens the cervical mucus and makes it difficult for the sperm to reach the egg.

(iii) Sex-Selective Abortion often leads to an imbalance in the sex ratio which causes social issues like increased crimes against women, difficulties in finding marriage partners, and gender discrimination.
