Solution

The correct option is D Astronauts
Women in several societies are conditioned to take care of household work right from their childhood and were not allowed to work in many jobs until the 20th century. These social trends may be the reason why we see a lot of men doing jobs that earn a good sum of money. Men are always paid more for the same work done by a woman. Women are underrepresented in many jobs in the domain of science, politics, engineering and business.
