An inherited sex-linked recessive gene passed on from the mother.
Inherited on a sex chromosome, genetic disorders such as color blindness and hemophilia are caused by mutations in specific genes located on the X chromosome. These disorders are more commonly seen in males because they have only one X chromosome, making them more likely to express recessive X-linked traits. Females, with two X chromosomes, are typically carriers of the mutated gene but may not exhibit the disorder unless they inherit two copies of the mutated gene.
It is a genetic disease. Hemophilia is a genetic blood disorder. The person with this disorder has blood that doesn't clot as it should. It is not caused by a bacteria, virus or a protist.
Blindness can be caused by a variety of genetic diseases, such as retinitis pigmentosa, Leber congenital amaurosis, and glaucoma. These conditions can be inherited in different patterns, such as autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant, or X-linked. Genetic testing can help identify the specific genetic cause of blindness in an individual.
Several genetic disorders are caused by genes on the X chromosomes.
Color blindness is a sex-linked genetic disorder. The reason that it is more prevalent in males is because the disorder is linked the the X-chromasome. If a male inherits an X chromosome that is defective, then they will be color blind. However, a female has two X chromosomes which means she can receive a defective chromosome and only be a carrier of the mutation. If she receives two defective x chromosomes, she will be colorblind.
x-linked recessive chromosome.
No, hemophilia is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the genes responsible for blood clotting, and it is not directly caused by inbreeding. Inbreeding can increase the likelihood of inheriting genetic disorders, including hemophilia, if the mutation is present in the family's gene pool.
There are so many genetic disorder caused by sex linked to name few; Auto Immune disorder, Hemophilia, Night Blindness etc.
X-Linked Inheritance
Red-Green color blindness, or hemophilia.
There are so many genetic disorder caused by sex linked to name few; Auto Immune disorder, Hemophilia, Night Blindness etc.
Some examples of sex-linked disorders include hemophilia, color blindness, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. These disorders are caused by mutations on the sex chromosomes, typically the X chromosome.
blindness caused by corneal disorders
these are both sex-linked. they are usually passed down from a carrier mother to a son.
color blindness, um some cancers, yellowing of the skin, age of minstral system, get sun burn easy..
