Answer:

Those structures which are directly concerned with reproduction are considered primary sex characteristics. Secondary sexual characters can be used to differentiate between males and females and usually serve the purpose of attracting potential mates. Testosterone is responsible for male secondary sex characteristics such as a deep voice and facial hair. In the female, the hormones that most nearly parallel testosterone in their actions are the estrogens. Estrogens contribute to the development of the female secondary sex characteristics and stimulate the development of the mammary glands (breast in this question), the onset of menstruation, and the development and functioning of the reproductive organs. The other hormone produced by the female sex glands, called progesterone, assists in the normal development of pregnancy.
