Secondary sex characteristics do NOT include?

Voice quality
Breasts and hips
Ovaries and testes
Body hair

The correct answer is: Ovaries and testes

Secondary sex characteristics refer to the features that develop during puberty that distinguish the two sexes but are not directly involved in reproduction. These characteristics manifest as physical attributes that emerge due to hormonal changes, such as increased body hair, changes in voice quality, and the development of breasts and hips. The ovaries and testes, on the other hand, are primary reproductive organs responsible for producing gametes and hormones. They play a direct role in the reproductive system and are not classified as secondary sex characteristics. Thus, identifying them correctly as the exception among the listed options makes sense in the context of distinguishing between primary and secondary sex traits.
