Several genetic disorders are caused by genes on the X chromosomes.

Several genetic disorders are caused by genes on the X chromosomes.
What causes disorders such as Klinefelter's syndrome and Turner syndrome?
non disjunction of sex chromosomes
Is hemophilia a dominantrecessiv or a sex linked trait?
Sexlinked and recessive.
What is an autosomal dominant disorder?
Chromosomes can be divided into autosomes and sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes (eg X and Y in humans) carry genes concerned with sex determination. The remaining chromosomes are called autosomes. They carry genes which are the same in males and females. Aberrations are changes or mutations in the chromosomes. So autosomal aberrations are mutations in the non-sex chromosomes.
What are sexlinked genes?
Genes that are location on the sex chromosomes.

What are the sex chromosomes that make an individual male?
Humans have 46 chromosomes, with 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. Males have XY sex chromosomes while females have XX sex chromosomes. However, genetic disorders do occur whereby some males have XYY or XXY chromosomes, making the total number of chromosomes to be 47. Females have their own share of genetic disorders: Turner's Syndrome (single X chromosome) or Trisomy X (XXX). In normal cases the short answer would be: XY for males, XX for females.
What is a sex-linked disorder and give one example?
Genetic disorders that are linked to either the X or the Y chromosomes. Red-green colorblindness and hemophilia are both sex-linked disorders.
What is an autosomal dominant disorder?
Chromosomes can be divided into autosomes and sex chromosomes. The sex chromosomes (eg X and Y in humans) carry genes concerned with sex determination. The remaining chromosomes are called autosomes. They carry genes which are the same in males and females. Aberrations are changes or mutations in the chromosomes. So autosomal aberrations are mutations in the non-sex chromosomes.
How are autosomes similar to sex chromosomes?
Sex chromosomes and autosomes are from the same chromosome, The chromosome has 46 chromosomes and 2 of them are sex chromosomes and the rest are called autosomes
What is the sex chromosomes of male?
In humans and other mammals, a male has XY sex chromosomes. In birds, a male has XX chromosomes. In amphibians, male chromosomes look the same as female chromosomes.
