Biology
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago

Answer:

A sex-linked trait refers to genes that determine a specific structural or functional characteristic and are found on an X or Y sex chromosome.

Explanation:

The X and Y sex chromosomes are what determine the sex of an individual, XY for male and XX for female. A sex chromosome-linked trait refers to specific genes located on one of the sex chromosomes.

In general, the X sex chromosome is capable of having more traits linked to it because it is larger than the Y chromosome.

Genes are what determine the morphological and functional characteristics of an individual. <u>When specific genes are found on a sex chromosome, the traits that they determine will be given to the offspring through that chromosome</u>.
