Fragile X Syndrome
Fragile X Syndrome
Chromosome maps display the relative positions of genes, genetic markers, and other DNA sequences along a chromosome. This information can help researchers understand the genetic basis of diseases, evolutionary relationships, and genetic variations within a population.
Deletion Syndrome or Williams Syndrome
Females have two X chromosomes, allowing them to be carriers of sex-linked genetic disorders on one X chromosome while having a normal allele on the other X chromosome. Males have only one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, so any genetic disorder on their single X chromosome will manifest as the disorder rather than being masked.
The probability would be 0.5 or 50%. A heterozygous woman will pass on the X chromosome with the recessive allele to 50% of her sons, and since the disorder is recessive, the son would only have the disorder if the X chromosome with the recessive allele is inherited from the mother.

Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder. It is caused by having 1 extra chromosome (chromosome 21).
No, Down's syndrome is only a human genetic disorder. Those with the disorder have an extra chromosome. Raccoons do not get this particular genetic disorder.
Additional chromosome
Sounds like the disorder is genetic and located in his x-chromosome.

PKU is described as an inherited, autosomal recessive disorder.
