• MALES

• FEMALES

• BOTH

• NEITHER. IT IS DETERMINE BY THE RULE OF DOMINANCE

Multiple Choice

WHO DETERMINES THE SEX OF THE OFFSPRING?

• MALES

• FEMALES

• BOTH

• NEITHER IT IS DETERMINED BY THE LAW OF DOMINANCE

Multiple Choice

WHY IS IT THAT MALES DETERMINE THE SEX OF THE OFFSPRING?

• THEY HAVE STRONGER TRAITS.

• THEY CARRY THE Y-CHROMOSOME THAT CANNOT CARRY TRAITS.

• FEMALES HAVE TO CARRY MORE TRAITS.

• FEMALES HAVE WEAKER TRAITS.
