Rationale: The correct answer is B: Growth spurts in height occur toward the end of mid-puberty. This information is important for parents to understand as it helps them anticipate and support their child through this phase. Height growth typically peaks in mid-puberty, so parents should expect and be prepared for this growth spurt.

A: Changes in the voice signal the beginning of puberty - This is incorrect as changes in voice (voice cracking) occur during mid to late puberty.
C: Puberty might be delayed if scrotal changes have not occurred by the age of 11 years - This is incorrect as the timing of puberty varies greatly among individuals, and delayed scrotal changes do not necessarily indicate delayed puberty.
D: Gynecomastia commonly occurs during late puberty - This is incorrect as gynecomastia (enlargement of breast tissue in boys) typically occurs in early puberty.
