★ Solution :-
a) Deficiency of testosterone hormone, will deprive a person of sexual drive, desire and/or sexual act.
Reason ::
Castration, refers to removal of testes and ovaries which is a source for sexual drive in males and females. A good contraceptive device should not interfere or stop the sexual desire of a person or should not cause trouble to sexual life of a person. Here since by the use castration male testes is removed, the person won't be able to able to develop sexual feelings and won't be able to do sexual drive. Removal of male gonad, will therefore cause problems for males.
Let's understand this deeply ::
We know that testosterone hormone is produced by testes. And this testosterone is responsible to rise sexual desire of a person. When this testes will be removed due to castration, person won't be able to produce testosterone and thus sexual life would be disturbed. Even for females it's same reason since ovaries will be removed and female won't be able to produce sex - related hormones.
Hence, this is the correct answer.
