Solution
The correct option is A True
Puberty involves a series of physical stages or steps that lead to the achievement of fertility and the development of the secondary sexual characteristics. A rapid increase in height, referred to as a growth spurt usually accompanies puberty. This rapid increase in height typically lasts for two to three years. About 17%-18% of adult height is attained during puberty. Although the increase in height affects both the trunk and the limbs, growth in the limbs usually happens first. The growth spurt characteristically occurs earlier in girls than in boys.
