This region is known as the ______________________________ region or ___________ for short. The expression of these genes causes the bipotential gonad to develop into the testes. Once the testes have started developing, two hormones, testosterone and Anti-MüllerianHormone are produced. Testosterone causes the _____________________ ducts to develop into the _____________________. Testosterone also causes the internal development of the __________________ and __________________.
