What chromosome number is hemophilia on?
Hemophilia is a Sex-linked genetic disorder. It is found on the X chromosome of chromosome 23.A carrier for Hemophilia(represented by H(dominant) or h(recessive)) would look like this:XHXh(Female)*Males are not carriers for hemophilia-They are either affected or they're not*An affected person would look like this:XhXh(Female) XhY(Male)Someone who is neither a carrier nor affected would look like this:XHXH(Female) XHY(Male)
What are the affected parts of the body hemophilia?
The blood is affected. The blood of a person with Hemophila lacks the clotting factor, so people with it are "Free Bleeders."
What sense organ is affected by hemophilia?
Hemophilia is actually the lacking of specific proteins in the blood. The liver normally produces these proteins (called clotting factors) but in people with hemophilia it does not function normally, either not producing or produces non funtioning versions of one or more of these clotting factor proteins
A recessive gene located on the X chromosome is the cause of hemophilia in affected individuals. Males are more likely to have hemophilia than females because?
Males only have one copy of the X chromosome
What animal population was not affected by an increase is the krill population?
There are a couple of animal populations that were not affected by an increase is the krill population. Cobras were not affected.
Which clotting factor is deficient in Hemophilia A?
Hemophilia A is an X-linked, hereditary bleeding disorder caused by the absence or defect of a blood clotting protein, Factor VIII. As a result, when a person with hemophilia A has a bleeding episode, the bleeding may be prolonged due to the body's inability to form blood clots. Patients who are affected with hemophilia A experience frequent spontaneous bleeding, most commonly into their joints and soft tissues, with bleeding into vital organs that may ... be life-threatening. Bleeding episodes may be painful, and over time, recurrent joint bleeding may result in debilitating destruction of the joints. Currently, patients with hemophilia A are dependent on injections of Factor VIII produced by genetic engineering or purified from human plasma, to help control a bleeding episode. It is estimated that approximately 50,000 individuals worldwide are affected with hemophilia A. Hemophilia A - Clotting Factor VIII Hemophilia B - Clotting Factor IX Hemophilia C - Clotting Factor XI

What is the age for hemophilia?
Genetic hemophilia is a life-long chronic condition. A person would have it all of their life, from birth to death. Acquired hemophilia happens as a result of some other circumstance and is not directly linked to age. A person may get acquired hemophilia from causes such as extensive liver damage or certain medications. Since these conditions normally occur in older populations it generally trends that way but is no way limited to that age set.
Which chromosome contains the gene for hemophilia?
The X chromosome. That's why it's more common in males; females have 2 X chromosomes, but males only have 1. So if a woman has the hemophilia mutation on one of her chromosomes, she probably won't be affected by it.
