The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Diaphragm:** The diaphragm is a contraceptive device that is shaped like a rubber dome. It is designed to act as a barrier during sexual intercourse. 2. **Function of the Diaphragm:** The primary function of the diaphragm is to prevent sperm from entering the uterus. It does this by covering the cervix, which is the opening to the uterus. 3. **Analyzing the Options:** - **Option 1: Vestibule** - The vestibule is the area between the labia minora and does not serve as a barrier to sperm. Thus, this option is incorrect. - **Option 2: Vagina** - While the diaphragm is placed inside the vagina, it does not stop sperm from entering the vagina itself. Therefore, this option is also incorrect. - **Option 3: Cervix** - The cervix is the correct answer because the diaphragm effectively blocks sperm from passing through the cervix into the uterus. 4. **Conclusion:** The diaphragm stops sperm from entering the cervix, which is the correct answer to the question. **Final Answer:** The diaphragm stops sperm from entering the cervix. ---
