B.be mindful that girls always dominate discussion in science classroom.✓ Correct
C.invite women scientists to visit your classroom.

Explanation
To encourage girls to take up science, teachers should use gender-sensitive language, invite role models such as women scientists, and engage students in critically examining stereotypes about who can do science. Insisting that girls 'always dominate' the discussion is itself a biased approach and is not a sound pedagogical strategy — equity, not dominance, is the goal.
