These ___ ___ form the follicular cells that surround _____ in the ____.
In female embryos, without the influence of TDF, the indifferent gonad becomes the ovary when PRIMITIVE SEX CORDS dissociate and the surface epithelium of the gonad proliferates to develop CORTICAL CORDS that penetrate the UNDERLYING MESODERM.

Ejaculatory ducts empty–>PROSTATIC urethra—> MEMBRANOUS urethra—> PENILE urethra.
Both prostate and bulbourethral glands are _____ in origin.
Both prostate and bulbourethral glands are ENDODERMAL in origin.
Internal genital ducts in the female are stimulated by ______, and the absence of ______/___ to develop the ______/_____ ducts. ____ also act on external genitalia.
Internal genital ducts in the female are stimulated by ESTROGEN, and the absence of TESTOSTERONE/MIS to develop the PARAMESONEPHRIC/MULLERIAN ducts. ESTROGEN also act on external genitalia.

Defective fusion of paramesonephric ducts may result in ______ ______ or ____.
The caudal ends of the paramesonephric ducts contact the ______ sinus, which subsequently
forms evaginations, the _________ _____, that proliferate for lengthening and formation of a solid
vaginal plate, which later canalizes except at the caudal end as _____.
Defective fusion or
canalization may result in duplication or _____ _____, respectively. Thus, the upper vagina and fornices are of fused paramesonephric duct origin (_____-derived) while the lower vagina is urogenital sinus origin (______-derived)..
The cranial-most part of the paramesonephric ducts remain unfused and develop into the UTERINE TUBES that open into the peritoneal cavity.

vaginal plate, which later canalizes except at the caudal end as HYMEN.
Defective fusion or
canalization may result in duplication or VAGINAL ATRESIA, respectively. Thus, the upper vagina and fornices are of fused paramesonephric duct origin (MESODERM-derived) while the lower vagina is urogenital sinus origin (ENDODERM-derived)..
