What age group experienced the largest increase in the male-female ratio from 1990 to 2000?
The age group that experienced the largest increase in the male-female ratio from 1990 to 2000 was likely the senior population, typically age 65 and over. This age group tends to have a higher proportion of females due to longer life expectancy, leading to a larger increase in the male-female ratio as the population ages over the decade.

The hamstring muscle group (biceps femoris, semitendonosis, semimembranosis) are the antagonists to the quadricep group.
Is there a difference in the muscle size after a regular exercise and a strenuous exercise?
If you were talking about resistance training, the only measurable difference in size immediately after a strength training session would occur if you deliberately trained in such a way as to experience a "pump" in a muscle group. For a few minutes, that muscle group would be engorged with blood and might be slightly larger than normal. Of course, in the long term proper resistance training will increase your amount of lean muscle mass and that may (at least in men) increase the size of muscles.
