In humans there is a higher incidence of male children who phenotypically diplay a sex-linked trait. The inheritence level in females is about equal to that of the males but, because they have two X chromosomes they carry it genotypically but not phenotypically.

What determines the traits that an organism inherits from its parents?

The traits that an organism inherits from its parents are determined by the genetic information encoded in DNA. Each parent contributes half of the organism's genetic material through their gametes (sperm and egg cells), which contain alleles for various genes. The combination of these alleles influences the expression of traits, such as physical characteristics, behaviors, and physiological functions. Environmental factors can also interact with these genetic predispositions, further shaping the organism's traits.
