Solution

The correct option is C Adam’s apple
Development of Adam's apple is a secondary sexual character which is present only in boys. In girls, the first menstrual cycle begins at adolescence and is termed as menarche. In both boys and girls, hair grows under the arms and in the region above the thighs or the pubic region. During adolescence, the activity of sweat and sebaceous glands are increased in both girls and boys.
