The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the primary female sexual characteristics over time, from their formation to the mature structure. The primary female sexual characteristics are the ovaries, and they develop in response to sex hormone secretion. A developmental process by which a progressive change in the state of some part of an organism specifically contributes to its ability to form offspring. The establishment of the sex of a female organism by physical differentiation. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the primary sexual characteristics over time, from their formation to the mature structures. The primary sexual characteristics are the testes in males and the ovaries in females and they develop in response to sex hormone secretion. The process by which the anatomical structures of female genitalia are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The establishment of the sex of an organism by physical differentiation. Development of a tissue or tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Development pertains to the process whose specific outcome is the progression of a structure over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the genitalia over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the female genitalia over time, from formation to the mature structure. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the female genitalia over time, from formation as part of the genital disc to the mature structure. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
