Because the gene that causes hemophilia is located on the X chromosome, so it will occur in males more frequently than in females.
What else can I help you with?
Why is hemophilia considered to be a sex trait?
It is carried on the X chromosome.
Example of sex-limited trait in animals?
Hemophilia.
Is hemophilia a dominantrecessiv or a sex linked trait?
Sexlinked and recessive.
Is hemophilia recessive or dominant?
Hemophilia ia a sex linked disorder that is normally recessive. There are many cases however where trait shows "incomplete or shared" dominance. In these cases the females will have lowered percentages of the clotting factor proteins and may for all intents and purposes be considered mild or moderate hemophiliacs themselves.
How does a person inherit hemophilia and is it dominant or recessive?
It is a sex-linked recessive trait inherited from the mother.
What is a trait that is often linked to he sex of a person?
There are a number of "sex-linked" characteristics: male pattern baldness and hemophilia come to mind.
Why is hemophilia considered to be a sex-linked?
It is carried on the X chromosome.
What is sex-link?
A sex-linked trait is a trait governed by genes on only one of the two sex chromosomes.
Is hemophilia a sex-limited or a sex-influenced trait?
Hemophilia, along with color blindness, is a sex-linked recessive trait. Hemophilia is when a person lacks a clotting factor in the blood. This results in the decreased ability to have blood clots. This can be dangerous because a person may internally or externally bleed to death. People with hemophilia must take clotting factors (by needle injection) frequently throughout their lives in order to live. As it is to be known, mothers are the carriers of these kind of traits. If a mother has the hemophilia trait, that means that her son will have hemophilia.
What type of trait is hemophilia?
recessive sex-linked, X chromosome disorders, haemophilia is more likely to occur in males than females.
Why is hemophilia considered to be a sex-linked trait-?
It is carried on the X chromosome.
When the trait is on the X-chromosomes what is it called?
When a trait is located on the X chromosome, it is referred to as an X-linked trait. This means the trait is inherited through the X chromosome and can show different patterns of inheritance compared to traits on autosomes. Examples of X-linked traits include red-green color blindness and hemophilia.
