Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Puberty typically begins for both girls and boys between the ages of 8 and 14. While some individuals may begin puberty earlier or later within this range, starting as late as 18 or as early as 7 is considered outside of the typical range and may warrant medical attention. Therefore, options A and B are too late for typical puberty onset and option D is too early for typical puberty onset. Option C, 14, falls within the typical range for both girls and boys.
