In general, men tend to walk faster than women. That’s because walking speed is【B1】_____by physical features and using them in a way that minimizes energy expenditure. Mass and lower limb【B2】_____ influence walking speed, and in general, men tend to be higher in both.

Walking with friends did not significantly change pace for anyone, and women only slightly changed their pace when walking with their partner. The authors say this suggests that【B6】_____stride only happens for romantic partners.

That’s because a woman’s reproductive system【B8】_____ energy disturbances, and in hunter-gather societies that sometimes walked long distances, too much energy expenditure could【B9】_____a woman’s ability to conceive. The researchers believe this provides an added layer of information for【B10】_____fossil footprints of ancient societies.
