Q

cloacal urogenita sinus develops

A
  • separated from anus

- top: genital tubercle (body of erectile tissue)

29
Q

formation of the external genitalia in males

genital tubercle elongates to form the phallus
urethral folds close to form a penile urethra
labioscrotal swells into a scrotum and accepts the descending testicles

tubercle does not lengthen and urethral folds do not close
results in short clitoral body and labia minora
open to both urethra and vagina
