Step-by-step explanation:

The true statements are:

- The World Health Organization has called for a moratorium on surgeries to "correct" intersex conditions.

- The Intersex Society of North America (ISNA) argues that the medical standards for "normal" baby genitalia are arbitrary.

The false statements are:

- About 0.01 percent of the population has an intersex condition. (The actual number is estimated to be higher, around 1.7% of the population.)

- The Intersex Society of North America (ISNA) was founded to stop intersex conditions from being labeled as disorders. (ISNA was founded to raise awareness about intersex conditions and to advocate for the rights of intersex individuals.)
