Question

how do the pill and mini - pill provide protection against pregnancy? they kill sperm. they block sperm from reaching an egg. they prevent the ovaries from releasing an egg. they release progestin into the body to prevent fertilization

Explanation:

The pill and mini - pill contain hormones that mainly work by preventing the ovaries from releasing an egg (ovulation). They don't directly kill sperm or block sperm from reaching an egg. While the mini - pill contains progestin, its main action is still related to suppressing ovulation rather than just releasing progestin to prevent fertilization in isolation.

Answer:

They prevent the ovaries from releasing an egg.
