Question

Match the Following:

Column A	Column B
1. Delivery of baby	a. Parturition
2. Embryo development in female body	b. Gestation
3. Introducing sperm into female tract	c. Insemination

• A. 1-a, 2-b, 3-c
• B. 1-b, 2-a, 3-c
• C. 1-c, 2-b, 3-a
• D. 1-a, 2-c, 3-b

Hint:

Parturition = Childbirth, Gestation = Pregnancy period, Insemination = Introduction of sperm into female reproductive tract.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept: Human reproduction involves several important biological processes. Each process has a specific scientific term associated with it. Understanding these terms is essential for studying reproductive biology.

Step 1: Identify Delivery of Baby
The process of childbirth or delivery of the fully developed fetus is called parturition. Therefore, \[ 1 \rightarrow a \]

Step 2: Identify Embryo Development in Female Body
The period during which the embryo develops inside the uterus from fertilization until birth is called gestation. Therefore, \[ 2 \rightarrow b \]

Step 3: Identify Introduction of Sperm into Female Reproductive Tract
The deposition or introduction of sperm into the female reproductive tract is known as insemination. Therefore, \[ 3 \rightarrow c \]

Step 4: Form the Correct Matching
Combining all matches: \[ 1-a,\quad 2-b,\quad 3-c \] This corresponds to Option (A). \[ \boxed{\text{(A) }1-a,\;2-b,\;3-c} \]
