Sex-linked disorders are passed on the X chromosome. The man supplies the Y chromosome to his sons so the disorder cannot be passed on to the sons. But the man gives his daughter an X chromosome so the disorder can be passed on to her.
The probability would be 0.5 or 50%. A heterozygous woman will pass on the X chromosome with the recessive allele to 50% of her sons, and since the disorder is recessive, the son would only have the disorder if the X chromosome with the recessive allele is inherited from the mother.
true
The odds depend on the specific sex-linked disorder. For carrier mothers of an X-linked recessive disorder, there is a 50% chance of passing the affected gene to a son (who would be affected) and a 50% chance of passing the gene to a daughter (who would be a carrier). For X-linked dominant disorders, there is a 50% chance of passing the gene to both sons and daughters.
No. Mars did not. Amulius the brother of Numitor, after killing all his brother's sons and making his only daughter a Vestal Virgin so she could not have any heirs overthrow him - Mars either raped or seduced her. When Amulius found that she had had sons, he threw Rhea Silvia into prison and threw her sons (Romulus and Remus) into the river Tiber.

Sounds like the disorder is genetic and located in his x-chromosome.
