Question

The sex of an organism is typically determined genetically, but environmental factors can also play a role. Scientists examined the roles of genes and environmental temperature in the sex determination of a lizard species. Individuals with a ZWpair of chromosomes are always female (ZWf), while individuals with a ZZ pair of chromosomes can be either male (ZZm) or female (ZZf). Scientists mated ZWf or ZZf females with ZZm males and incubated the eggs produced in 20 clutches at temperatures ranging from 23°C to 36°C. When the young hatched, the scientists determined their sexes (Table 1). Among the eggs that did not hatch, the mortality of embryonic lizards was approximately the same for both males and females.
(b) Using the template, construct an appropriately labeled graph, including error bars, to represent the data in Table 1. Based on the data, compare the ZZm×ZWf crosses and the ZZm×ZZf crosses to determine whether there is a significant difference between the two crosses in the fraction of female progeny produced at 24°C, 32°C, and 36°C.
