Solution

The correct option is A Broad shoulders
During puberty, the body shape of the adolescent changes. Males tend to develop muscular stature with broad shoulders that allow muscles to get enough oxygen. Wider hips is a feature specific to female body that plays a significant role during childbirth. On the other hand, increased height and acne development are common to both males and females during puberty and are not related to oxygen supply.
