2.2.2Sex Ratios Within Occupations and Social Status Could the social status of occupations partly reflect the proportion of females in those occupations? As discussed below, some research has sought to answer this question with respect to (1) an occupation’s perceived prestige and (2) regarding...
This was due to the induction of 50 % sterility in a large proportion ofF1individuals. Cytogenetic examination of the progeny of outcrosses ofF1individuals indicated that in most of the semi-steriles there were translocations involving the large autosomes or theYchromosomes. Almost all the normally...
solution strategies, and even though similar strategies appeared both from elementary teachers and secondary teachers, a majority of secondary teachers pointed out the underlying idea of similarity, whereas less than half of the elementary teachers explained their reasoning for using ratios and proportion...
In the population studied this proportion was equal to 0.619 in 1988 and to 0.455 in 1989. These proportions were considered as replicates, and the G- statistic fOr goodness-of-fit to the expected frequency (0.333) was computed. It proved to be 7.379 (d.f.= 1, 0.005 ...
earlier English meanings ofratio. It was a direct borrowing from the Latin word that gave usratio—which is convenientlyratio. In Latin,ratiomeant everything from "reason" to "calculation" to "proportion," and it was this final meaning that was drawn upon for the mathematical and Englishratio...
In the absence of A, the relative frequencies at equilibrium (summing to 1) of the three female genotypes X°X°, XX0 and XY under this model are Yi = 1 —y3/r Y2(i —r)y3/r y3= (r2(c—2)+5r—2)/(r(c—r+2)) and the sex ratio (proportion of males) is (1) (r(1...
The proportion of females in all broods from eight pairings of fish captured in the field decreased significantly at 30°C compared to 20°C, and one brood was entirely female at the lower temperature. These results suggest that phenotypic males (XX-males) exist in nature, probably as a ...
Moreover, the higher the proportion of first-born children in a given year, the higher were the overall sex ratios. This finding is consistent with previous studies that have shown that birth order has a definite effect on the sex ratio at birth, regardless of the age of the mother. 展开...
