Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Females generally have a higher body fat percentage than males, which is true, making A correct. Females are indeed more resistant to infection than males due to differences in immune system function, making C correct. While there is evidence suggesting differences in blood vessel elasticity between genders, with females potentially having more elastic blood vessels, which could contribute to differences in cardiovascular disease risk, making D plausible. However, the statement that females are more likely than males to develop physical and mental disorders is overly broad and not accurate. While there are gender differences in the prevalence of certain conditions (e.g., females are more likely to experience depression and anxiety), males are more likely to suffer from other disorders (e.g., autism, ADHD). Therefore, the assertion in B is false because it generalizes across all physical and mental disorders without acknowledging the complexity of these conditions and their distribution across genders.
