Generally the trait is on the X chromosome, as the Y is rather small and full of deleterious mutations and has few working genes. But and trait that is located on a sex chromosome is said to be sex linked. Naturally, women have two, XX, chromosomes, so ore protected statistically from many sex linked recessive disorders.

No. Carriers are people that carry the gene for something but exhibit no phenotype for it. Since males have no extra copy to hide a recessive trait, they cannot be carriers for sex linked traits.Answ2. Followers of this question should consult say haemophilia in wikipedia.com.

When discussing genetics, recessive trait refers to the fact that the offspring of two parents must inherit two copies of a gene to expose the trait. This would mean that both parents must be carriers of said gene in order for their offspring to show a recessive trait.
