Hemophilia is passed down from mother to son. It is extremely
rare for a woman to have hemophilia. It is necessary, though, for
a woman to be a carrier of the disorder for her son to acquire this
disorder. Females have two X chromosomes whereas males only
have one. When a boy is born, he takes one X chromosome from
his mother and one Y chromosome from his father. Therefore, he
can only get hemophilia through his mother.
Example One:
Mother(Carrier)+Father(Non-Affected)=50% chance of their son
acquiring the disorder and 50% chance of their daughter being a
carrier.
Example Two:
Mother(Non-Affected)+Father(Hemophiliac)=All sons will be
non-affected and all daughters will be carriers.
