    Glossary Sex Determination

    biological process deciding male or female development based on genetics

    Sex determination is the biological process by which an organism develops as male or female, typically based on genetic factors. In humans, this is usually controlled by the presence of specific sex chromosomes: XX for females and XY for males. This process influences various physiological traits, including hair growth patterns and susceptibility to conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
