Answer: A
Paying more attention to boys than girls is an example of gender bias.
Gender bias means treating people unequally because of their gender. A teacher who calls on boys more, gives them more feedback or expects more of them is showing it, often without meaning to, and girls may then participate less and lose confidence.
Gender identity is a person's own sense of being a boy or a girl, gender constancy is the child's understanding that gender stays the same over time, and 'gender relevance' is not a recognised concept in this sense. None describes unequal treatment.
