Model Answer
(a) Uterus — Contraceptive devices like loop or copper-T are placed in the uterus to prevent pregnancy.
(b) Fallopian tube (Oviduct) — It is blocked (tubectomy) to prevent the transfer of eggs from ovary to uterus.
(c) Ovaries — The female germ cells (ova) are formed in the ovaries.
(d) Placenta — The embryo receives nutrition from the mother's blood through the placenta, embedded in the uterine wall.

Explanation
- This is a 2-mark question with 4 sub-parts, so each part carries ~½ mark — one word/line per part is sufficient.
- Examiners expect the correct organ name; a brief qualifier shows understanding and avoids confusion.
- Key terms to remember: uterus (copper-T), fallopian tube/oviduct (blocked), ovaries (ova formation), placenta (nutrition transfer).
- Do not confuse ovary (egg formation) with uterus (embryo development); this is a common error.
