Homologous chromosomes carry genes for the same traits at corresponding loci. They are similar in size and shape and are inherited from each parent.
Traits on different chromosomes, such as eye color and hair texture, are typically inherited independently of each other. This means that the inheritance of eye color does not influence the inheritance of hair texture, and vice versa. Thus, these traits are considered to be unlinked in terms of inheritance.
Homologous Chromosomes.
Sex-linked traits are inherited through alleles located on the sex chromosomes, specifically the X and Y chromosomes. In humans, females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). Since sex-linked traits are carried on the X chromosome, they are inherited differently in males and females. Males inherit sex-linked traits from their mothers, as they receive their only X chromosome from their mother. Females can inherit sex-linked traits from both parents, as they receive one X chromosome from each parent.

Homologous Chromosomes.
Homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes carry genes for the same traits in the same loci. They are inherited from each parent and pair up during meiosis.
The two chromosomes in each matching pair in a karyotype are homologous chromosomes. These homologous chromosomes carry genes for the same traits at the same loci. One chromosome in the pair is inherited from the mother and the other from the father.

Inherited traits.
Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.
Sex-linked traits are inherited from the organism's parents.
Homologous chromosomes. They are two chromosomes, one inherited from each parent, that have the same genes at the same loci but may have different alleles.
An inherited trait is typically determined by multiple genes working together. The exact number of genes involved can vary depending on the trait. In many cases, dozens to hundreds of genes may contribute to a single inherited trait.
A fetus's sex is determined by the combination of sex chromosomes inherited from the parents: typically, a female has two X chromosomes (XX), while a male has one X and one Y chromosome (XY). The sperm from the father carries either an X or a Y chromosome, which, when combined with the X chromosome from the mother, determines the sex of the fetus. Inherited traits are determined by genes, which are segments of DNA located on chromosomes. Each parent contributes one allele for each gene, influencing the offspring's traits based on dominant and recessive inheritance patterns.
