freemartin

A condition occurring in dizygotic twins of different sexes in cattle (and occasionally other species), when anastomoses of placental vessels permit interchange of hormones and cells during fetal life. The female calf is a sterile intersex due to passage of androgens from the male, and both calves are blood cell chimeras with immune tolerance, due to interchange of cells in utero.
