Pelvic Kidneys
Primitive sex cords are formed from
Mesenchyme of genital ridges
What becomes paramesonephric duct
Epithelium of Mesonephros
Mesonephric duct also known as
Wollfian Duct
Paramesonephric duct also known as
Mullerian Duct
Mesonephric duct in males forms (3)
Epididymis
Vas Deferens
Seminal Vesicle
Urogenital Sinus forms (3)
Bladder
Urethra
Prostate
Lower Vagina
Paramesonephric duct forms (3)
Fallopian Tube
Uterus
Cervix part of Vagina
SRY codes for what
TDF in Males
What makes indifferent gonad develop into testis
TDF in Males
What forms leading cells
MIS transforms mesenchymal cells
What produces testosterone and thus male external genitals
Leydig Cells
SRY transforms
Sertoli cells
What makes paramesonephric duct degenerate
Sertoli cells secretes MIS
When is TDF secretes
Week 7
What week does Leydig Cells produce Testosterone
Week 8
Seminal Vesicles are an outgrowth of
Caudal end of mesonephric duct
Prostate is an outgrowth of
From urethra from urogenital sinus
In the presence of TDF gonad does what
develops into testis
What end of paramesonephric duct becomes ovary
Cranial
What end of paramesonephric duct becomes sup vagina and uterus
Caudal
Inferior part of vagina developed from
Urogenital Sinus
Gonads initially form where
Lumbar region
In week 7 where are testis and ovary
T10
When does broad ligament develop?
Week 12
Round ligament of ovary is drawn through inguinal canal to attach to
Labrum Majorum
In Week 12 what happens to testis
at level of deep inguinal ring until 7th month
