● In grasshopper and drosophila there is male heterogamy.
● In those the females have allosomes as XX
● In X chromosome there is a gene called SRY. In males there is one X chromosomeand so there's gene produce testis.
● In females there are chromosomes as XX. there are two genes. These genes form ovary in those organisms.

This is the reason.
