Several are correct:
Affect males more than females
Can be carried by females
Are always expressed by males
A bit of explanation: sex linked genes are carried on the X chromosome. That’s why it affects males more than females...they only get one x from their mom. Females can be affected IF they receive 2 bad X chromosomes. So with a male, the bad gene on the x is always expressed. Color blindness is a good example of this.
This was Lamarck's idea. Here's an example: Suppose giraffes originally had short necks that they stretched to reach high-up leaves in the trees. This continuous stretching of the neck was passed onto offspring, who as a result had slightly longer necks. This continued for multiple generations until we get today's long-necked giraffe. Lamarck was on to something (that something being evolution by natural selection, which Darwin discovered), but his theory wasn't completely correct since organisms can only pass on genes (segments of DNA that code for a characteristic or function) to their offspring. Since "stretching" would not code into DNA, it wouldn't be passed onto offspring, proving Lamarck's theory incorrect.
Answer:
To store genetic information to pass on to other living organisms.
