Chapter 29, Problem 25RAC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Sex chromosomes or allosomes are different from autosomes in size and behavior. The allosomes determine the sex of an individual. The human female has XX pair of the chromosome, and a male has XY pair of the chromosome.

Which statement about the pattern of inheritance for a recessive X-linked allele is true?
A. Unaffected parents can produce daughters who are affected.
B. Unaffected parents can have sons who are affected and daughters who are carriers.
C. Unaffected fathers can be carriers.
D. Affected parents do not produce affected children.
E. Every affected person has an affected parent.
Hemophilia is a disease caused by a gene found on the X
chromosome. Therefore, it is referred to as a sex-linked disease.
The recessive allele causes the disease. A man with hemophilia
(xhy) marries a woman who is homozygous dominant (XHXH.
A. Illustrate using a Punnett square the probability that their children
will have the disease.
B. Will any of their children have the disease?
C. Predict the probabilities of their children having the disease.
Hemophilia is a disease caused by a gene found on the X chromosome. Therefore, it is a sex-linked disease which is caused by the recessive allele. Suppose, a man with hemophilia marries a woman who is homozygous dominant for the trait. Predict the genotype of the man. (XH = normal; Xh= hemophiliac) *
a. XH Y
b. XHXh
c. XhXh
d. Xh Y
