Solution
The correct option is B Adolescence.
Puberty is the time in life when a boy or girl becomes sexually mature.
Puberty changes start when the brain triggers the production of sex hormones.
It causes physical changes in an individual according to gender.
While adulthood is the state or condition of being fully grown or mature, and adolescence is the period following the onset of puberty during which a young person develops from a child into an adult.
