The relationship of this unbounded structure to the […]

In mammals, birds and some reptiles, sex is determined by sex-specific chromosomes.  In mammals, the sex-determining chromosomes are called X and Y, and only males have both.  In birds and reptiles, these chromosomes are called Z and W, and only females have both.
