Answer:

C. neuter

Step-by-step explanation:

The term spay refers to the act of incapacitating an individual to reproduce sexually by removing the sexual gonads, which in the male cases are the testicles (orchiectomy) and in females the ovaries. But when a contraction is performed on females, usually not only the ovaries, but also the fallopian tubes and the uterus are removed, a technique that is called ovarianhysterectomy (OSH).

Another term for spay is C. neutering

These terms are commonly used on pets, as when they are adopted, they get either spayed or neutered to make sure that they do not have babies.
