B

C

D
very late
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Body shape – Another sign of puberty in girls is changing body shape, particularly extra fat in the belly area (some call it “baby fat”). Weight gain can cause anxiety for girls. This is part of normal development, and her body will redistribute the fat from the stomach and waist to the breast and hips.

Detailed explanation-2: -Girls who have high leptin levels–because they are overweight–could be more prone to early puberty. Biological changes in young babies could have a lasting effect, too. Studies have indicated that rapid weight gain during infancy might be related to later obesity and a higher risk of early puberty.
