Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Gender maturation is a lengthy process that begins during embryonic development and is completed during late adolescence, at which time full maturity is achieved. The other statements are not correct.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The first reproductive structure formed in the embryo is a gonad. This early reproductive tissue arises from the mesoderm, which is the embryo's middle layer. The mesonephric ducts are a set of primitive reproductive ducts. Oocytes are eggs.
