Página 255 - Is the difference significant in itself, or as an index of metabolic differences! If the eggs with more chromatin than their neighbours develop into females, and if chromatin be an index of a relatively preponderant anabolic capacity, can the theory be brought into line with the thesis of The Evolution of Sex...
