The correct Answer is:
To determine how many of the given statements are incorrect, we will analyze each statement one by one. **Step 1: Analyze Statement I** - Statement I: "The cavity of the cervix is called cervical canal which along with vagina forms the birth canal." - Analysis: This statement is correct. The cervical canal is indeed the cavity of the cervix, and it, along with the vagina, forms the birth canal during childbirth. **Step 2: Analyze Statement II** - Statement II: "Spermatogenesis starts at the age of puberty." - Analysis: This statement is also correct. Spermatogenesis, which is the process of sperm formation, begins at puberty, typically around the ages of 10 to 15 in boys. **Step 3: Analyze Statement III** - Statement III: "At puberty, only 60,000-80,000 primary follicles are left in the female body." - Analysis: This statement is incorrect. At puberty, a female typically has around 400,000 primary follicles, not just 60,000-80,000. **Step 4: Analyze Statement IV** - Statement IV: "In the early phase of pregnancy, a hormone called relaxin is also secreted by the ovary." - Analysis: This statement is also incorrect. Relaxin is primarily secreted during childbirth to help relax the pelvic ligaments and widen the cervix, not in the early phase of pregnancy. **Conclusion: Count the Incorrect Statements** - From our analysis: - Statement I: Correct - Statement II: Correct - Statement III: Incorrect - Statement IV: Incorrect - Therefore, there are 2 incorrect statements (III and IV). **Final Answer: 2 statements are incorrect.** ---
