A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is True. Research has shown that the ratio of ring finger length to index finger length (2D:4D ratio) correlates with prenatal testosterone exposure. A longer ring finger indicates higher testosterone levels in utero, which has been linked to various health outcomes including lower risk of heart disease. This is based on epidemiological studies showing correlations between finger length ratios and certain health conditions.
