The gene for the most well known form of hemophilia is located on the X chromosome. It is not the result of too many or too few chromosomes. A male receives only one X chromosome while the receives two X chromosomes. These gene codes for factor VIII, one of the factors within the clotting cascade. If a female inherits the mutated gene, she has a second gene on the other X chromosome. However, she is capable of passing the gene for hemophilia onto her children. Males inherit one X chromosome and so have hemophilia.

It's not a disorder based on the number of chromossomes, but is caused by a recessive gene located in the X-chromossome.
People who have Hemophilia bleed longer than normal people. Their blod doesn't clot normally and it can be fatal. Other than that I'm not sure. Hope that helps.
yes
Albinos have the same number of chromosomes as non-albinos. It is a genetically recessive trait or mutation, not the result of too many or too few chromosomes.
it occurs when the chromosomes during meiosis do not separate correctly and then it results in a gamete or egg cell too have too few or too many chromosomes. This can lead to different diseases.
Only in that way do you get a human zygote - each chromosome MUST be paired and there must be 46 total to get a true human. (Note that in reality there are occasional mismatches - either too many or too few - and the result is always a defective child.)
well since I'm a major in biology and i have directed many things, i have found out that there will only be 21 after fertilization. See, chromosomes will start separating and a few will go to the fertilization process. that is how there is less than they usually have.
Contrary to comic book mythology, if you mess with the number of chromosomes, the result is either a nonviable zygote, severe genetic abnormalities, or later in life, cancer. Humans can survive with extra or missing sex chromosomes, but usually an odd number of autosomes results in spontaneous abortion of the embryo. In short, you will not be able to read minds with a few extra chromosomes.
nondisjunction
Albinos have the same number of chromosomes as non-albinos. It is a genetically recessive trait or mutation, not the result of too many or too few chromosomes.
Yes, nondisjunction results in a germinal cell (ovum or spermatozoa) with either too many or too few chromosomes. If one of these cells joins with another to form a zygote, there may be one or more too many or too few chromosomes in the cells.
Lethality.
Complicated.
Trisomy 21 (Down's syndrome), Turner's syndrome (XO), and Klinefelter's syndrome (XXY) are a few examples of genetic disorders that can result when chromosomes don't separate correctly during meiosis.

Red-Green color blindness, or hemophilia.
It depends on which chromosomes were present as to what the abnormality would be, if any. If they were missing one or had one extra there would be developmental abnormalities.
There are so many genetic disorder caused by sex linked to name few; Auto Immune disorder, Hemophilia, Night Blindness etc.
