(a) (i) The oral pills contain hormones which stop the ovaries from releasing ovum into the oviduct.

(ii) The vaginal pills contain the chemicals called spermicides which kill the sperm.

(b) Copper- T is effective in preventing pregnancy. It is placed inside the uterus and it prevents the flow of sperms in the uterus.

(c) AIDS.
