Achondroplasia is not sex linked in humans. Heterozygous individuals have a reduced long bone growth phase with early closure of the growth plates.
Two alleles for achondroplasia are generally lethal because in addition to decreased long bone growth, the rib cage cartilage is modified and the affected baby cannot breathe effectively.

A trait is sex-linked dominant if it appears in every generation and affects both males and females. It is sex-linked recessive if it skips generations, more common in males, and passed from carrier females to affected males. Mendelian inheritance patterns can help determine if a trait is sex-linked dominant or sex-linked recessive.
When the trait is on the X-chromosomes what is it called?
When a trait is located on the X chromosome, it is referred to as an X-linked trait. This means the trait is inherited through the X chromosome and can show different patterns of inheritance compared to traits on autosomes. Examples of X-linked traits include red-green color blindness and hemophilia.
