Question

In humans, the allele for hemophilia, h , is recessive. Which phenotype is displayed in an individual with the genotype X H Y?

Answer 1

Answer:

A man who does not have hemophilia

Explanation:

Hemophilia is an X linked recessive disorder. Affected females are denoted by genotype Xh Xh while the normal but carrier females have genotype Xh X.

On the other hand, normal males are denoted by genotype XH Y. Here, presence of X chromosome with normal allele imparts no disease to the male.

The males with hemophilia have "h" allele on their X chromosome and are denoted by genotype Xh Y.

Answer 2

It's definitely not the woman, so I'd say it's B. As the trait is recessive, a person who doesn't have hemophilia itself is likely to be able to pass it on to there children.
