Answer:

The correct answer is D. Nose and thyroid cartilages.

Explanation:

During puberty, many changes occur in the body of both males and females due to the change in hormonal balance and secretion. During adolescence, the male height is increased abruptly and their body starts becoming muscular.

In males during the puberty days, nose and thyroid cartilage enlarges disproportionately. The reason for disproportionate nose in males is that male requires more oxygen for muscles than females. In males, the thyroid cartilages enlarge more than females and responsible for vocalization in them. So the correct answer is D.

Answer:

Alternative Family

Explanation:

Alternative family is a relatively new evolved type of family structure that include family life types that are entirely different from the usual traditional family that consists of a father, a mother and the children. Alternative family is a non—traditional family type  that embraces models of family life, such as lesbian/gay families, single—parent households, adopting individuals, women—headed families, IVF etc.  

In the traditional family model or nuclear family, the man is meant to be the main provider of the needs of the family, and to be supported by the wife, while the wife is to provide home care to the children and the husband. In the case cited in the question, the family life seen in Ted’s family is in contrast with what an ideal traditional family model should look like. It is an example of an alternative family.
