Is hemophilia a dominantrecessiv or a sex linked trait?
Sexlinked and recessive.
Is apert syndrome autosomal or sexlinked?
Apert syndrome is a autosomal dominant genetic disorder, meaning that only one copy of the mutated gene from either parent is necessary to inherit the condition. It is not sex-linked.
Why are males more likely to get recessive sex linked disorder?
Males are more likely to get recessive sex-linked disorders because they have only one X chromosome, meaning they will display the disorder if that X chromosome carries the recessive gene. Females, on the other hand, have two X chromosomes which can often mask the presence of the disorder if one X chromosome carries a normal allele.
What is sex linked disorder?
it means that you inherit this form of disorder either from your mother or father's sex chromosomes. For example- color blindness or Haemophillia.
Who would be a sex-linked recessive defect?
Hemophilia, a blood clotting disorder, is an example of a sex-linked recessive defect. It occurs more commonly in males because the gene for hemophilia is located on the X chromosome. Females are usually carriers of the gene but are less likely to exhibit symptoms.
What are sexlinked genes?
Genes that are location on the sex chromosomes.

Females, on the other hand, have two X chromosomes which can often mask the presence of the disorder if one X chromosome carries a normal allele.
What is a sex- linked disorder?
Certain genetic defects occur on the sex chromosomes, either X (female) or Y (male).
What is the main reason that sex-linked disorder are most often observed in males?
Males are most likely to have the disorder.
What sex is more likely to develop oppositional defiant disorder?
more common in boys than girls before puberty ; the disorder typically begins by age eight. After puberty the male:female ratio is about 1:1.

What is a sex linked trait or disorder?
Simply a trait or disorder that resides on one of the sex chromosomes. XX for female and XY for male. Since the X chromosome carries significantly more genes than the Y we see more traits and disorders appearing on this chromosome and also it is statistically more likely for males to express disorders on this chromosome, especially recessive, as they have only one X chromosome.
