The evolution of sex ratios has
produced, in most plants and animals with separate sexes, approximately equal
numbers of males and females. Why should this be so Two main kinds of answers
have been offered. One is couched in terms of advantage to population. It is
argued that the sex ratio will evolve so as to maximize the number of meetings
between individuals of the opposite sex. This is essentially a "group selection"
argument. The other, and in my view correct, type of answer was first put
forward by Fisher in 1930. This "genetic" argument starts from the assumption
that genes can influence the relative numbers of male and female offspring
produced by an individual carrying the genes. That sex ratio will be favored
which maximizes the number of descendants an individual will have and hence the
number of gene copies transmitted. Su A. conducted their research at approximately the same time B. sought to manipulate the sex ratios of some of the animals they studied C. sought an explanation of why certain sex ratios exist and remain stable D. studied reproduction in the same animal species
