Answer:

X-linked recessive inheritance

Explanation:

Since the disease is primarily present in males vs females, it is a s.ex linked disease.

In X-linked recessive inheritance, males tend to get disease b/c they only have one x (the other is y) which means if they get the bad "x" copy from mom then they definetely will get the disease.

Females can be carriers b/c they are XX. If they get a good copy from mom and suppose a bad copy from dad, they can still be healthy b/c the good copy is dominant. They will be carriers (cuz they have the bad copy) but themselves wont have the disease.
