The answer is the first one: 2% of the world population.

Explanation for each option:

  1. 2% of the world population: This is the most commonly cited estimate for the prevalence of intersex individuals when considering all seven indicators of sex, which include chromosomal, gonadal, hormonal, and anatomical variations. This estimate accounts for the broad spectrum of intersex variations.

  2. 1% of the world population: While this is a possible estimate, it is generally considered to be on the lower end of the spectrum when considering the full range of intersex variations.

  3. 0.02% of the world population: This figure is significantly lower than most estimates and likely underrepresents the intersex population by not accounting for the full range of variations.

  4. 5% of the world population: This estimate is higher than most commonly accepted figures and may overestimate the prevalence of intersex individuals.

In summary, the most widely accepted estimate for the intersex population, considering all seven indicators of sex, is approximately 2% of the world population.
