a a cavity that is narrower in all dimensions, with heavier bones.
b a cavity that is narrower in all dimensions, with lighter bones.
c a cavity that is wider in all dimensions, with heavier bones.
d a cavity that is wider in all dimensions, with lighter bones.

Explanation:

Female pelvis is adapted for childbirth, so it has a wider cavity. Also, female bones are generally lighter than male bones (males have heavier bones due to more muscle mass and different hormonal profiles).

Answer:

D. A cavity that is wider in all dimensions, with lighter bones.
