In which two women is fertilisation impossible at present?

Reproductive Health

Solution:

Figure $'R'$ is showing complete blockage of Fallopian tubes and figure$S'$ is showing tubectomy which is a surgical method of contraception in females. When both the Fallopian tubes are blocked or cut and tied, there will be no transport of gametes and thus no fertilisation.
