AIS (Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome) both involve Y chromosomes that have SRY genes. SRY genes are involved in development of testes (male gonads). She does not have testes but still has higher levels of testosterone than the average female. Testosterone causes greater muscle development, higher haemoglobin capacity enhances her physical ability.
