Marfan syndrome is not sex linked. It is autosomal dominant and found equally in all genders and ethnicities.
Types of dominance, multiple alleles, sex linked inheritance, polygenic inheritance and maternal inheritance.
in sex-linked chickens the males coloring and markings will be different looking in newly hatched chicks. For example: Golden Sex Link Chickens (also known as Golden Comets), will have reddish yellow chicks and lighter yellow chicks. The feathers are different for the different sexes. It is easy to determine if the chick is a female (pullet) or male (roo). Sex-linked chickens are not a standard chicken breed, rather a hybrid cross of two different breeds, usually combined to create highly productive hens. There are several different sex-link hybrids on the market. The benefit to buying sex-linked chicks is knowing that you have all pullets and no roosters in the bunch!
No. If the bird comes from a sex-linked breed the sex can be determined by feather coloration, otherwise you examine the vent, or wait until it is more mature and look at it's comb and wattles.
There are a few things that might cause coat color variations that occur only in the females of a certain animal. These traits are sex-linked on the chromosomes.
Zika virus is a disease that starts with the letter Z. It is primarily spread through mosquito bites and can cause symptoms such as fever, rash, joint pain, and red eyes. In pregnant women, Zika virus is linked to birth defects in babies.
No, Tourette's syndrome is not sex-linked. It can be passed on from anyone, and anyone can receive the disease.
Anyone can get Marfans syndrome, it is a genetic disorder.

nope
Klinefelter Syndrome is sex-linked, because it is a genetic defect that results in a male having an extra X chromosome.
Google has the answer for everything.
I'm not a doctor...but my husband has marfans and TLE (temporal lobe epilepsy). I get the impression its not very common though.
No, it is a genetic disorder. You are born with it.
Klinefelters is sex chromosome trisomy. Down Syndrome is trisomy. One of the most common forms of MD is sex-linked and affects boys more frequently than it does girls.
Lesh-Nyhan syndrome is inherited as a sex-linked recessive disorder.
DiGeorge syndrome is not caused by a single gene mutation, but rather by a deletion of a portion of chromosome 22. It is not inherited in a simple Mendelian pattern like dominant autosomal or sex-linked traits.
No, down syndrome is not a sex linked trait therefore neither gender has a highe risk
