Janette is having twins, a boy and a girl. Early in development, describe what the boy and girl babies would have in common and how they will grow to become a boy vs. a girl.
What will be an ideal response?
When Janette is first pregnant, both of her babies will have Müllerian ducts (the precursors to female internal structures) and Wolffian ducts (the precursors to male internal structures) as well as undifferentiated gonads. After a while, the male baby's SRY gene will cause the undifferentiated gonads to become testes. The Wolffian ducts will develop and the Müllerian ducts will degenerate. For the female baby with the SRY gene, her gonads will become ovaries and her Wolffian ducts will degenerate. Her Müllerian ducts will become her other female sex organs.
