Just as on the demand side, the position of the supply can shift, say from a change in the price of a productive input or a technical improvement. The Law of Supply states that, in general, a rise in price leads to an expansion in supply and a fall in price leads to a contraction in supply.
Puberty takes place over a number of years, and the age at which it starts and ends varies widely. It generally begins somewhere between the ages of 7 and 13 for girls, and somewhere between the ages of 9 and 15 for guys, although it can be earlier or later for some people.
For girls, the growth spurt begins between 10 and 11 and lasts until around 15; for boys, it starts about two years later and lasts until age 17 or so. Girls typically stop growing about three years after they've had their first period, but boys continue to grow throughout their teens.
