- Statement I is true but Statement II is false
- Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Answer
(3) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Solution
Statement I is true: the hymen may be torn by a sudden fall or jolt, insertion of a vaginal tampon, or active participation in sports like horse riding and cycling, and in some women it persists even after coitus. So its presence or absence is not a reliable indicator of virginity or sexual experience.
Statement II is false: the hymen is not torn only during the first coitus.
Answer: (3)
