PrenatalSexualDifferentiation Genetic Factors
Prenatal Sexual Differentiation Gonads -[become]-> Testes or Ovaries In males, at 7th week, outer portions of gonads degenerate and inner portions develop into testes In females, at 11th week, inner portions of gonads degenerate and outer portions develop into ovaries
Prenatal Sexual Differentiation Gonads -[become]-> Testes or Ovaries Testes - endocrine glands that produce • male hormones (androgens) • Mullerian Inhibiting Substance Most changes reflect the presence or absence of androgen
Prenatal Sexual Differentiation Wolfian Ducts - later become • epididymes • vasa deferentia • seminal vesicles
Prenatal Sexual Differentiation Gonads -[become]-> Testes or Ovaries Ovaries- endocrine glands that produce • female hormones (e.g.estrogen)
Prenatal Sexual Differentiation Mullerian Ducts - later become • uterus • fallopian tubes • upper part of vagina
