Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Autosomal dominant inheritance is a type of inheritance in which a parent has a 50% chance to pass on the mutated allele. An individual only needs one mutated allele to have the disease. <em>Male and female can be equally affected by this pattern</em>, in contrast to X-linked dominant inheritance.

In X-linked dominant inheritance, only one mutated copy is required to have the disease, but because it affects X chromosome, <em>men are more likely to have the disease,</em> because they only have one X chromosome.
