Ha ;)
What else can I help you with?
Is hemophilia a dominantrecessiv or a sex linked trait?
Sexlinked and recessive.
Is sickle cell anemia a sexlinked trait?
Nope! The disease is equally in both males and females. This means that it is autosomal.
What are sexlinked genes?
Genes that are location on the sex chromosomes.
Is color blindness a dominant or a recessive trait?
Color blindness is a recessive trait, meaning that an individual needs to inherit two copies of the gene for color blindness (one from each parent) in order to be color blind. If an individual inherits only one copy of the gene, they are considered a carrier and will not exhibit color blindness.
Is it true that sexlinked recessive disorders are most often passed from mothers to sons?
true
Does sickle cell disease require two allele or multiple alleles?
Sickle cell disease is an autosomal reccessive sexlinked trait so, a female msut have 2 recessive alleles to have the trait and a male needs only one allele (this is because there is no corresponding site for this allele on the Y chromosome. The female can be a carrier of the disorder with the defective allele on one X chromosome and a normal allele on the other X chromosome. Female carrriers can have a mixture of normal and abnormal redblood cells.
Can males be carriers of sexlinked traits?
No. Carriers are people that carry the gene for something but exhibit no phenotype for it. Since males have no extra copy to hide a recessive trait, they cannot be carriers for sex linked traits.Answ2. Followers of this question should consult say haemophilia in wikipedia.com.
A trait that is hidden?
The trait that is hidden is recessive trait.
Can a person be a carrier for a dominant genetic disorder?
Anyone can be a carrier of a recessive genetic disorder (as long as it is not associated with the sex chromosomes) no matter what their gender since "carrier" refers to an individual that is heterozygous for the recessive allele and therefore phenotypically normal. Specifically, sexlinked genetic disorders can be "carried" by a heterozygous female but males (having only one X chromosome) cannot. Males will either be free of the defective gene or be affected.
What causes a branch in a cladogram?

In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?

What trait masksthe othor form of a trait?
