Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
In traditional societies, women's work tends to be more focused on domestic tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and childcare, which may not require the rapid mobilization of energy. Men, on the other hand, may engage in physically demanding work such as farming or hunting, which may require travel from home. While some women may engage in physically demanding work, it is not necessarily a common trend across all traditional societies. Therefore, statement C is not always true.
