Answer to Question 1

Sex refers to the biological and anatomical differences between females and males. At

the core of these differences is the chromosomal information transmitted at the

moment a child is conceived. The mother contributes an X chromosome and the father

contributes either an X chromosome (which produces a female embryo) or a Y

chromosome (which produces a male embryo). At birth, male and female infants are

distinguished by primary sex characteristics: the genitalia used in the reproductive

process. At puberty, an increased production of hormones results in the development of

secondary sex characteristics: the physical traits (other than reproductive organs) that

identify an individual's sex. For women, these include larger breasts, wider hips, and

narrower shoulders a layer of fatty tissue throughout the body and menstruation. For

men, they include development of enlarged genitals, a deeper voice, greater height, a

more muscular build, and more body and facial hair.
