Tubectomy is a method of sterilization in which:

1. small part of the fallopian tube is removed or tied up.
2. ovaries are removed surgically.
3. small part of vas-deferens is removed or tied up.
4. uterus is removed surgically.

Correct answer: small part of the fallopian tube is removed or tied up.

Solution

Tubectomy is a female sterilization procedure in which the fallopian tubes are cut, tied, or blocked so the egg cannot travel to the uterus and meet sperm. This prevents fertilization without removing the ovaries or uterus.
