What is the relationship between the release of androgens and the Müllerian system during prenatal development?
a. When androgens are released, they stimulate the release of an anti-Müllerian hormone that stops development of female sex organs. b. When androgens are released, they stimulate the Müllerian system so that female sex organs will develop normally. c. If androgens are released during the Müllerian system, the baby will be "intersexed," and will have the genitalia of both a male and a female. d.
