Ovary and Uterus Development This animation shows the process of early uterus and ovary development.
Compare this animation with that for testis development animation. Embryonically, both gonads (testis and ovary) and internal genital tracts (ductus deferens and uterus) begin with the same basic elements that have divergent pathways under the initial influence of the sex chromosomes (Y and X).
