Answer

B

Explanation

X represents tubectomy in human females while Y represents vasectomy in human males.
Vasectomy is applied in males where a small part of the vas deferens (helps in transport of sperms) is removed or tied up through a small incision on the scrotum.
Tubectomy is applied in females where a small part of fallopian tube (helps in transport of avum and is the site of fertilisation) is removed or tied up through a small incision in the abdomen or through vagina.
