Paramesonephric (Mullerian) ducts
Around 6 weeks, (1) form lateral to the nephric ducts
42

The sex determining region of the Y chromosome
43
Male
With SRY, fetus will develop into a (male/female) | *Assuming everything else goes according to plan
44
Mullerian
Appendix testis is a (mullarian/wolffian) duct remnant

In males (With SRY) the primitive sex cord develops into (1), while in females the primitive sex cord develops into the (2)
47
MIS (Mullerian Inhibiting Substance)
Sertoli Cells secrete (1), which causes the Mullerian and Paramesonephric Duct Involutes
48
