The alternately spliced forms of the RNA from the Drosophila doublesex gene encode proteins that are needed

Question:

The alternately spliced forms of the RNA from the Drosophila doublesex gene encode proteins that are needed to block the development of one or the other set of sexual characteristics. The protein that is made in female animals blocks the development of male characteristics, and the protein that is made in male animals blocks the development of female characteristics. Predict the phenotype of XX and XY animals homozygous for a null mutation in the doublesex gene.
