What is the difference between Hemophilia A and Hemophilia B?
There are two types of hemophilia: hemophilia A (sometimes called classical hemophilia) and hemophilia B (sometimes called Christmas disease). Both are caused by a low level or absence of one of the proteins in the blood (called factors) that control bleeding. Hemophilia A is caused by a deficiency of factor VIII, and hemophilia B is caused by a deficiency of factor IX. There is no difference between the two types of hemophilia, except that hemophilia B is about five times less common than hemophilia A.
Is hemophilia A inherited as a recessive or dominant trait?
Hemophilia A is inherited as a recessive trait.
A hereditary bleeding disorder that results from lack of clotting factors?
Hemophilia is a hereditary bleeding disorder where a person lacks certain clotting factors, such as Factor VIII or Factor IX. This can result in prolonged bleeding and difficulty forming blood clots, leading to potential serious complications if not managed properly. Treatment often involves replacing the missing clotting factors through infusions.
Is hemophilia co dominant or dominant?
It is very much recessive with only one exception, which is that there is a large portion of women who simply carry the trait but dont actually have it. If you are to procreate with a female carrier than your chances of having a hemophiliac child are still not very high. You can find all the info you need by using a Punnett Square method to figure out the chances of hemophiliac children with 2 parents.
Explain why a woman carrying a gene for hemophlia can produce hemophilic sons when she is mated with a normal male?
A woman carrying a gene for hemophilia is typically a carrier with one X chromosome carrying the hemophilia gene and one X chromosome carrying the normal gene. When she is mated with a normal male who has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, there is a 50% chance that the son will inherit the X chromosome carrying the hemophilia gene from the mother. Since males have only one X chromosome, if they inherit the hemophilia gene, they will express the disorder.
When does hemophilia occurs?
Traditional Hemophilia is present from birth and throughout the individual's life. This is because the disorder is genetically linked and genetics are pretty much set at the time of conception. Acquired Hemophilia, which is much more rare, can begin at pretty much any stage of an individual's life. While being more common in older people than younger, any person on certain medications, people with liver disease, and a handful of other situations can develop acquired hemophilia. (Acquired hemophilia is not inherited.)

Why hemophilia is a serious disorder?
This question is a bit ambiguous to say the least. The most clear cut and simplified answer I can offer is; Hemophilia causes in affected individual's blood to not clot properly and often exacerbates wounds and injuries making them several times more problematic. Minor trauma to locations such as the head, neck, chest, or back can develop into life threatening situations if the individual is not treated. Treatment for hemophilia is in itself problematic due to the financial burden it enparts on the individual. Hemophilia treatment costs an average of $250,000 per year for each person with hemophilia in the United States. Maintaining appropriate medical coverage is of the highest importance. The secondary impacts of hemophilia are no lighter than the disorder itself. Hemophilia can also greatly skew the social, physical and phycological state of the individual if adequate treatment is not provided. Overall quality of life can be dramatically altered.
