The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the side effects of anabolic steroids in females, we will analyze each option provided: 1. **Masculinization (features like males)**: Anabolic steroids mimic the action of male hormones, particularly testosterone. In females, this can lead to the development of masculine characteristics such as increased facial and body hair, a deeper voice, and loss of breast tissue. Therefore, this option is correct. 2. **Increased aggressiveness**: Anabolic steroids can lead to increased levels of aggression. This is often observed in both males and females who use these substances. Thus, this option is also correct. 3. **Mood swings**: The use of anabolic steroids can cause hormonal fluctuations, which can result in mood swings. This is a recognized side effect of steroid use, making this option correct as well. 4. **Premature baldness**: Anabolic steroids can lead to hair loss and premature baldness in females, similar to the effects seen in males. This option is also correct. Since all the options (A, B, C, and D) are valid side effects of anabolic steroids in females, the correct answer is that all of the above are side effects. **Final Answer**: All of the above (A, B, C, D).
