Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the first month after conception, the fetus has a structure called the genital tubercle that will become either a penis or clitoris.

An ultrasound may not be able to accurately determine the sex of the fetus until later in the pregnancy. Therefore, choice A and C are incorrect, and choice D is partially correct but does not provide the best answer.
