Answer:

only females

Explanation:

In humans, sex chromosomes in males and females are different. The sex chromosomes found in humans are X and Y chromosomes. X-linked trait is a trait which is inherited on the X- chromosome. According to the question, the trait is passed on a X-linked dominant condition, which means the condition is inherited on the abnormal dominant X-chromosome that will express itself even when in an heterozygous state with a normal X-chromosome.

Hence, a father affected by the condition will have a genotype; XY while a mother that does not have the condition will have a genotype: xx (two normal x chromosomes). Since the Father can only pass his X chromosome to his daughters and never his sons, all his daughters will inherit the condition (see the punnet square in attached image).

N.B: None of the sons will inherit the condition since the mother will pass normal X-chromosomes (x) to her sons.

Irrigation is an artificial technology that helps to obtain water and thus recover the loss in extensive (wheat) crops.

<h3>What is irrigation?</h3>

Irrigation is a technology based on the artificial supply of water to recover crops from drought conditions.

Genetic modification may also help with drought conditions by inserting into the genome of the target species gene sequences associated with hydric stress (e.g., a protein channel to close stomata at night).

In conclusion, irrigation is an artificial technology that helps to obtain water and thus recover the loss in extensive (wheat) crops.
