The correct answer is:
The presence or absence of the X:chromosome in the egg
In the XO type of sex determination, all eggs bear an additional X:chromosome besides the other chromosomes (autosomes), and the sex of the offspring is determined by the presence or absence of the X:chromosome in the sperm that fertilizes the egg.
