Answer 1

Answer: In these studies, the girls were found to be tomboys during early childhood.

Explanation:

Androgens may be called "male hormones," but don't let the name mislead you. Both men's and women's bodies produce androgens, just in differing amounts. In fact, androgens have more than 200 actions in women, and they are present in higher amounts than estrogens.
