Question

Sex-linked traits are more common in

Answer 1

Answer:

X-Chromosomes.

Explanation:

Characters determined by a gene located on only the X-chromosome are said to be sex-linked. Such traits show a different pattern of inheritance in males and females. For example, a recessive allele on the X-chromosome

• would be masked in a female if the corresponding allele on the other X-chromosome is dominant;

• would always be expressed in a male because the Y-chromosome does not have a corresponding(active) allele.
