This calls for a pointless generalization. There are many types of strength. If you are speaking of muscular strength, generally speaking, a boy of the same age and size as a girl is reasonable likely to be stronger, but not certain to be stronger. A strong girl will surely be stronger than a weak boy. If you are talking about the strength to resist pain, the strength to resist temptation, the strength to devote oneself to duty instead of doing as one pleases, etc., I know of no definitive studies on those subjects, and they would be pointless as well, since they would not answer the question of whether a particular boy or girl would be stronger or weaker than any other particular boy or girl. The normal male human is stronger than the normal female human. The woman has a pain tolerance that is better than a man.

Yes boys do have more muscles than girls, and as a result of that an individual boy is much more often than not physically stronger than an individual girl, and that is why boys are physically stronger than girls.

You see when boys & girls go through puberty, the boys will naturally have much more testosterone in their bodies than girls, and due to all the extra testosterone the boys will as a result of that naturally develop more & stronger muscles than girls during puberty so by the time that boys & girls have finished going through puberty the boys will end up being physically stronger than girls, with bigger and stronger muscles than Girls.

No, boy and girls just have different hormones. Girls have estrogen and boys have testosterone.
