Answer» Secondary sex characteristics are features that appear during puberty in humans, and at sexual maturity in other animals. These are particularly evident in the sexually dimorphic phenotypic traits that distinguish the sexes of a species, but unlike the sex organs, are not directly part of the reproductive system.Differences in size between sexes are also considered secondary sexual characteristics. In humans, visible secondary sex characteristicsincludepubic hair, enlarged breasts and widened hips of females, and facial hair and Adam's apple on males. |
