In humans, females (XX) have two X chromossomes whereas males only have one. While most of one of the X chromossomes is deactivated in females it's still less likely for females to get an X-linked genetic disorder unless in double dose or a dominante gene. For males (XY), on the other hand, since they only have one X chromossome that isn't deactivated, one dose is usually enough to cause them to have the disorder, whether the gene is recessive or dominant. That's why males are way more likely to get such disorders than females. Hemofilia, daltonism and baldness would be three examples.
Traits linked to the Y chromossome will practically always manifest in males, and never in females. Hairy ears would be one example.

A sex-inluenced trait means a trait turns on or off depending on your sex (male or female) a sex-linked rait is a trait on your sex cromosome sex-limited trait : Trait expressed in only one sex.

Both sex-linked and sex-influenced traits are influenced by the individual's sex. Sex-linked traits are determined by genes located on the sex chromosomes, while sex-influenced traits are influenced by sex hormones and may be expressed differently in males and females despite being on autosomes.
Sex-linked inheritance involves traits that are linked to genes on the sex chromosomes (X and Y). Traits carried on the X chromosome are typically expressed differently in males and females due to differences in the number of X chromosomes they inherit. Examples include color blindness and hemophilia.

The three kinds of sex-related inheritance are: Sex-linked inheritance: Traits are associated with genes located on sex chromosomes, such as X-linked or Y-linked traits, often affecting males and females differently. Sex-limited inheritance: Traits that are expressed only in one sex, despite being present in both, often influenced by hormonal differences. Sex-influenced inheritance: Traits that can be expressed in both sexes but have different expression patterns; for example, a trait may be dominant in one sex and recessive in the other.
Let's take red-green color vision as an example. You could use the letter n to represent the dominant and recessive alleles. You could use a capital letter N to represent the normal allele, which is dominant, and a lowercase letter n to represent the defective allele, which is recessive. The genotypes for the sex-linked trait would be as follows: female, homozygous dominant: XNXN; female, heterozygous: XNXn; male dominant, XNY; male recessive, XnY.
Sex-related inheritance can be categorized into two main types: sex-linked inheritance and sex-influenced inheritance. Sex-linked inheritance involves genes located on the sex chromosomes, primarily the X chromosome, where traits can manifest differently in males and females due to their differing sex chromosome compositions. In contrast, sex-influenced inheritance refers to traits that are expressed differently based on the sex of the individual, even though the genes are located on autosomes, such as the influence of hormones on the expression of certain traits.
Sex-linked traits are genetic characteristics that are carried on the sex chromosomes, specifically the X and Y chromosomes. These traits differ from other genetic traits because they are inherited differently based on the individual's sex. For example, males have only one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes. This means that sex-linked traits are more commonly expressed in males, as they only need one copy of the gene on their X chromosome to show the trait, whereas females need two copies.
