Type the correct answer in the box. Spell the word correctly. How do X linked diseases affect females? In case of X linked disea
ses, the X chromosome bears the disease mutation. Females have XX chromosomes and males have XY chromosomes. In females, along with the X chromosome with genetic mutation a healthy X chromosome is also present. Therefore, we see females are mostly......... Of the disease.
The correct answer would be carriers of the disease.
Explanation:
It is already explained in question that in X linked or sex-linked diseases, the X chromosome carries the mutation. We already know that females carry two copies XX of the X chromosome while males carry one copy of the X chromosome and one copy of the Y chromosome.
If a male has affected the X chromosome with the Y chromosome it will express the disease however, with normal X chromosome he will be unaffected. While females have two copies of the X chromosome so if along with mutated X chromosome a healthy X chromosome is also present, she will be a carrier of the disease.
Thus, The correct answer would be carriers of the disease.

Enzymes are catalyst which increase the rate of a reaction by decreasing the activation energy.
