Low basal metabolism
Decreased bone strength
Transcript text: Deep voice
Narrow hips
Broad shoulders
Low basal metabolism
Decreased bone strength
Solution
The secondary sex characteristics that develop in males after puberty include:
Deep voice: The answer is correct. During puberty, the larynx grows and the vocal cords lengthen, resulting in a deeper voice.
Narrow hips: This is not a secondary sex characteristic that develops after puberty. Males typically have narrower hips compared to females, but this is not a change that occurs due to puberty.
Broad shoulders: The answer is correct. During puberty, males often experience an increase in muscle mass and changes in body structure, including broader shoulders.
Low basal metabolism: This is incorrect. Puberty does not cause a decrease in basal metabolism; in fact, metabolism can increase due to growth and increased muscle mass.
Decreased bone strength: This is incorrect. During puberty, males typically experience an increase in bone density and strength, not a decrease.
In summary, the secondary sex characteristics that develop in males after puberty are a deep voice and broad shoulders.
