The correct answer is:
I and III
I. Labia majora are fleshy folds of tissue that extend down from mons pubis and surround the vaginal opening. Labia minora are paired folds of tissue present under labia majora.
III. Although the hymen is usually broken during the first sexual intercourse, it may also break as a result of a sudden fall, insertion of a vaginal tampon, active participation in sports, cycling, etc. Hence, the absence of a hymen is not a reliable indicator of sexual experience or virginity.
