What determines whether an axolotl will grow up to be male or female?
Axolotls have genetic sex-determination - a locus on an axolotl chromosome determines whether an axolotl is male or female.
In salamanders, the sex determining mechanism is referred to as ZZ/ZW and the heterogametic sex is female.
