Hemophilia is a condition (usually inherited) in which the blood does not clot properly. It causes severe bruising and minor cuts can bleed almost uncontrollably. Few children born with it ever reach adulthood and those that do are typically anemic and very weak.
So, yes, I would consider it a "bad" condition for anyone with it.
What else can I help you with?
What is true of a woman with the genotype?
She is a carrier of hemophilia but does not have the condition
What allele is passed to a offspring male if mother has hemophilia?
Hemophilia is typically an X-linked recessive condition. If a mother has hemophilia, she carries two copies of the hemophilia allele on her X chromosomes (since females have two X chromosomes). Therefore, any male offspring will inherit one of her X chromosomes, which will carry the hemophilia allele, leading to him being affected by the condition. The male will inherit his Y chromosome from his father, which does not carry the hemophilia gene.
Is hemophilia communicable?
Hemophilia is not contagious by any means, however it can be passed from parent to offspring in the way of genetics.
What condition is a hereditary bleeding disorder that is transmitted from mother to her sons?
Hemophilia
How do you die from hemophilia?
You would bleed to death, as the condition prevents the clotting of your blood
You have hemophiliac and your husband does not what are the chances of your daughter getting it?
If you are a carrier of hemophilia (which is common in females who have a hemophiliac father) and your husband does not have the condition, there is a 50% chance that your daughter will inherit the gene for hemophilia and be a carrier, but not actually have the condition herself. There is also a 50% chance she will not inherit the gene at all. If you have hemophilia, all of your daughters will be carriers, while your sons will not be affected.
Can fish get hemophilia?

Inherited deficiency of clotting in which bleeding occurs after minor trauma?
This condition is called hemophilia.
A baby daughter is born with hemophilia what is the genotype of her father?
Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder, meaning the gene responsible for the condition is located on the X chromosome. Since the baby daughter has hemophilia, she must have inherited one affected X chromosome from her father. Therefore, the father must have the genotype X^hY, where X^h represents the X chromosome carrying the hemophilia gene, indicating that he is affected by the condition.
Why is it unlikely that natural selection will quickly reduce the frequency of hemophilia?
While the condition affects the males, it is CARRIED by the females, who do not suffer the effects of hemophilia, and can pass the disorder to THEIR female offspring.
What is an inherited condition that affects the heme pathway and may have led to the folklore about vampires?
