Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mary's preference towards masculine activities indicates her gender identity, which is different from her biological sex.

While gender-role stereotypes and gender constancy may influence one's gender identity, they are not the same concept as gender identity. Therefore, the best choice is B, gender identity.
