Why might missing sections of the X or Y chromosome be a bigger problem in males than deletions would be in one of the X chromosomes in females?

Females carry two X chromosomes and no Y chromosomes. so if one is missing a section, the other will make up for it. For males, who only have one X and one Y chromosome, there is no overlap.

In a cross between individuals of a species of tropical fish all of the male offspring have long fins and none of the females possess the trait Explain a possible inheritance pattern of the trait?

The long fin trait might be controlled by a sex-linked gene located on the sex chromosome carried by males but not females. Since males have only one X chromosome (XY), they would always inherit the gene for long fins from the female parent who carries the trait. Females, having two X chromosomes (XX), would need to inherit the gene from both parents to express the trait.


What is X-linked and Y-linked inheritance?

These are traits that are linked to the sex chromosomes. Only males can get Y-linked traits because only males have a Y chromosome. (Note: it's a bit more complicated that even this explanatin, but this is the general idea) If the father has the X-linked trait he can only pass it down to daughters. If the mother has the trait, the daughter might not have the trait because the father's donated X-chromosome might have a gene that masks it. If a son gets donated an X-chromosome from the mother with the trait, he will definitely show the trait.

I am a male but I'll have to be honest. The answer to this question is that this is the difference of hormones which makes men/males so angry and aggressive.
