Question

which of the following statements about muscle fitness development is true? multiple choice both men and women increase muscle mass through training but the increase in muscle mass among men is typically greater than among women. level of muscle mass development in response to training tends to vary by gender but be very similar among people of the same gender. muscle mass development is greater among people with an ectomorphic body type than among people with a mesomorphic body type. women typically have testosterone levels of about 1 percent of the typical levels in men, impacting muscle development.

Explanation:

Testosterone is a key hormone for muscle - mass development. Men generally have higher testosterone levels than women, which contributes to greater muscle - mass increase with training. Mesomorphs are more naturally muscular than ectomorphs. And individual differences within the same gender can be significant in muscle - mass development in response to training.

Answer:

A. Both men and women increase muscle mass through training but the increase in muscle mass among men is typically greater than among women
