Located on the X and Y Chromosomes
genes located on sex chromosomes are called sex-linked genes. In humans, there are two types of sex chromosomes: X and Y chromosomes.Genes located on the X chromosome are called X-linked and genes located on the Y chromosome are called Y-linked chromosomes.
No, genes located on autosomes are not considered sex-linked genes. Sex-linked genes are located on the sex chromosomes (X and Y) and usually show different inheritance patterns in males and females. Autosomes contain genes that are inherited equally by both sexes.

Linked genes are genes that are located close to each other on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together during meiosis. Similarly, sex-linked genes are located on the sex chromosomes (X or Y) and their inheritance patterns differ between males and females due to their chromosomal differences. The key difference is that while linked genes can be located on any chromosome, sex-linked genes are specifically associated with the sex chromosomes. Additionally, sex-linked traits often show distinct patterns of inheritance based on the sex of the individual, which is not necessarily the case for linked genes.
Genes that are located on one sex chromosome but not the other are called sex-linked genes.
Sex linked genes are located on the sex chromosomes.
Sex-linked genes are on the X and/or Y chromosomes.
The X & Y chromosomes.
It is a gene located on either sex chromosome (X or Y chromosome).
sex-linked genes
Sex-linked genes, genes found on one of the sex chromosomes (X or Y) but not the other. Most sex-linked genes are X-linked because the female chromosome is longer.
