Answer 1

The intersex condition characterized by an overproduction of androgens in the adrenal glands is known as Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).

Step-by-step explanation:

In individuals with an overproduction of androgens in the adrenal glands that can affect both XX and XY chromosomal make-ups, the intersex condition is known as Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) refers to a group of genetic disorders that affect the adrenal glands, which are located on top of each kidney and are responsible for producing essential hormones. CAH is characterized by a deficiency in one of the enzymes involved in the synthesis of cortisol, aldosterone, and sometimes sex hormones.
