What is more likely to happen to males because they have only one X chromosome?

sex-linked disorders


Why does a female with a gene for a sex-linked disorder usually appear normal?

A female with a gene for a genetic disorder will usually only have it on one of her two X chromosomes. The other chromosome will carry the healthy version of the gene, which will carry out that gene's function when the other chromosome cannot. Males will exhibit the disease if they have the gene as a male human only has one X chromosome. So, in order for a female to have a genetic disorder carried on her sex chromosome her mother would have to have the defective gene and her father would have the disorder.


Which chromosome represent a female?

A human has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs). One chromosome from each pair comes from the mother, and one chromosome from each pair comes from the father. One of the 23 pairs determines your sex. The sex chromosomes are called X and Y.For a child to be female, she must inherit an X chromosome from each parent (XX).For a child to be male, he must inherit an X chromosome from his mother and a Y chromosome from his father (XY).
