.answer:

petit arm

explanation:

all human chromosomes have 2 arms, the p (short) arm and the q (long) arm. they are separated from each other only by a primary constriction, the centromere, the point at which the chromosome is attached to the spindle during cell division.

the symbol "p" stands for "petit", small in French, while "q" was chosen merely because it was the next letter in the alphabet.

Those mutated genes are most commonly recessive. Females have two X chromosomes so they can have a chromosome with the mutated gene and one with the healthy gene. The healthy gene is dominant so the disease won't manifest, and the woman is only a carrier. Males have only one X chromosome and an Y chromosome. If they have the mutated gene on the X chromosome they won't have another X chromosome with the healthy gene.

To summarize, men can't be carriers and they only need one copy of the mutated X-linked gene while women need two copies of the mutated gene.
