REPRODUCTIVE DEVELOPMENT
Begins at the moment of conception and continues through life.
Reproductive System
collection of internal and external sex organ which works together for the purpose
of sexual reproduction.
Gonad
begin as genital regress; pair of longitudinal regist derive from intermediate
mesoderm and overlying the epithelium
Gonads
Body organ that produces the cells necessary for reproduction
1st Stage
What gonadal development stage where it's impossible to distinguish between male
and female and do not contain any germ cell
4th Week
What gonadal development stage where germ cell begin to migrate from the
endoderm lining of yolk sacs to genital regests
5th Week
What gonadal development stage where combination of germ cell and primitive
sex chords forms the indifferent gonad from which development in to the testes/
ovary can occur.
5th Week
What gonadal development stage where Mesophrenic (wolffian) and
paramesonephric (mullerian duct) form.

(VERIFIED STUDYGUIDE)
5th week of development
What gonadal development stage where the tissue that will become ovaries and
testes, have already formed
6th week of development
What gonadal development stage where reach the genital regress?
7th week of development
What gonadal development stage is where in the chromosomal male, early gonadal
tissue begins the formation of testosterone. Under the influence of testosterone, the
mesonephric duct develops into male reproductive organs and the paramesonephric
regresses.
10th Week
In what gonadal development stage where if testosterone is not present, the
paramesonephric duct becomes dominant and develops into female reproductive
organs.
10th Week
In what gonadal development stage where when ovaries form, all of the oocytes
are already present
oocytes
cells that will develops into eggs throughout the woman's mature years
12th week
In what gonadal development stage where external genitalia begin to develop
12th week
In what gonadal development stage where n males, penile tissue elongates, and the
ventral surface of the penis closes to form a urethra.
12th week
In what gonadal development stage where

(VERIFIED STUDYGUIDE)
In what gonadal development stage where In females, with no testosterone present,
the uterus, labia minora, and labia majora form
Uterus
labia minora
labia majora
In 12th week of gonadal development females, with no testosterone present, the
_______ _________, and ___________ form
testosterone
genitalia
If pregnant woman should be prescribed a form of testosterone or because
metabolic abnormality, she produces high levels of ___________, a chromosomal
female could be born with male-appearing ._________
puberty
stage of life at which secondary sex changes begin
*gonadotropin-releasing hormone
*FSH
*LH
For puberty in most girls, these changes are stimulated when the hypothalamus
synthesizes and releases ____________________ (GnRH) which then triggers the
anterior pituitary to release ________ and ________
Follicle - Stimulating Hormone
(FSH) stands for
Luteinizing Hormone
(LH) stands for
Ovary
gonad produce
Growth
