Read the passage carefully and answer the question that follow:
Most disputes about whether or not men are stronger than women are meaningless because the word 'strong' may mean many things. Most men can surpass most women in lifting heavy weights, in striking an object, in running, jumping or doing heavy physical labour. But most women live longer than most men, they have a better chance of resisting disease, they can beat men at operations requiring finger dexterity and the ability to work accurately under monotonous conditions. So it would be legitimate to argue that women are stronger than men. The truth is that each gender can surpass the other in certain kinds of activities. To say that one is stronger than the other is to indulge in futile arguments.
From the passage, which of the following statements is most likely to be correct?

A

a.Women live longer than the men because they can resist diseases better than men.

B

b. Monotonous living conditions make women stronger than men.

C

c. All women are incapable of running, jumping and doing physical labour because they are not strong.

D

d. Statistically speaking, most women live longer than most men.
