Solution
The correct option is C A and D
Statements A and D are correct. Every sperm has an X or Y chromosome. The pituitary gland is called the master gland because it produces hormones that control other glands and many body functions including growth. Statements B and D are wrong. At adolescence, all the parts of the body don't grow at the same rate. In boys, there is a development of facial hair, a deeper voice and larger Adam's apple and development of breasts and more curved and prominent hips in girls. The hormones are produced by the endocrine glands and are transported to the site of action by the blood.
