It is observed that a man who wears the X is always affected by the disease (because he has only one X chromosome in its genome) whereas the woman is only a carrier (she has two X chromosomes, so it can carry a safe X and a mutated X without being attempted by the disease but can transmit it to her descendants).

- Organs are structures formed as a result of collection of tissues with similar function. For example, the HEART is a circulatory organ made up of cardiac tissues, connective tissues etc.

- Organ systems is made up of organs that perform the same function in a living organism. In the case of the CIRCULATORY SYSTEM, it is made up of organs such as heart, blood vessels, lungs etc.
