Generally the trait is on the X chromosome, as the Y is rather small and full of deleterious mutations and has few working genes. But and trait that is located on a sex chromosome is said to be sex linked. Naturally, women have two, XX, chromosomes, so ore protected statistically from many sex linked recessive disorders.
This means that the characteristic is inherited based upon an individual's gender. A sex-linked trait appears on either the X or Y chromosome.
Occurs most commonly in males
dominant
A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have multiple alleles.
the answer is polygenic
Organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be? homozygous
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.
Sexlinked and recessive.
Nope! The disease is equally in both males and females. This means that it is autosomal.
Color blindness is a recessive sex linked trait.
If gene controling a character is located on sex chromosome , it is said to be sex linked .
dominant

Genes that are location on the sex chromosomes.
An organism that possesses two different alleles for a trait is said to be heterozygous for that trait.
the answer is polygenic
i mean to say what is a recessive trait not what is recessive trait sorry
Organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be? homozygous
When discussing genetics, recessive trait refers to the fact that the offspring of two parents must inherit two copies of a gene to expose the trait. This would mean that both parents must be carriers of said gene in order for their offspring to show a recessive trait.
