In humans, usually the X chromosome, because it is much larger. Very rarely does the Y chromosome carry them.
if you're asking about other animals, i have no idea. I do know that in chickens, Y is the female chromosome, and X is male, but i don't know if it changes the sex-linked trait situation
Sex- linked traits are those where the genes are found on the X and Y chromosomes. Colorblindness and male pattern baldness are the most well-known sex-link traits. Women have two X chromosomes. Men have one X and one Y, but the Y chromosome has fewer genes than the X. These differences help account for different patterns of inheritance than non-sex-linked traits.
Non-Mendelian traits are:A trait with no clearly dominant alleleA trait with four allelesA trait controlled by many genes
Its possible. A single gene defines a single protein.
Genes located on the X or Y chromosome are referred to as sex-linked genes. This is because the inheritance of these genes is dependent upon the sex of the individual. For example, only males can inherit genes located on the Y chromosome (because males have XY and females have XX).
Blood types are an example of an inherited trait determined by specific genes on the chromosome.
Color blindness is an example of an X-linked recessive trait, which is a type of non-Mendelian inheritance. This means that the gene responsible for color blindness is located on the X chromosome, and the trait is more commonly expressed in males than females.
Why is colorblindness a sex-linked trait? Descendants of colorblind hemophiliac man both disease are sex- linked? why do non of the children have either hemophila or colorblind

recessive sex-linked, X chromosome disorders, haemophilia is more likely to occur in males than females.
homologous chromosomes
Meckel Syndrome (type 1)is an autosomal recessive trait carried on chromosome 17.
Morgan determined that red-eye color in Drosophila is an X-linked trait by conducting a series of genetic crosses. He observed that when he crossed white-eyed males (mutants) with red-eyed females (wild type), all the F1 offspring had red eyes. When he then crossed F1 males with F1 females, he found a 3:1 ratio of red-eyed to white-eyed flies among the males, indicating that the trait was linked to the X chromosome. This inheritance pattern suggested that the white-eye mutation was recessive and located on the X chromosome, confirming its X-linked nature.
hostility
The chromosome is usually refered to as the "sex" chromosome. Chromosome #23. Also refered to as 'X' and 'Y'. XX for female, XY for male.
