HEMOPHILIA
Explain why hemophilia is more common in males than in
females.
Sex Determination & Linkage
What are the sex chromosomes for the following genders?
Female:
Male:
During meiosis, how many sex cells are created?
What is the probability of being a male or a female?
Identify two traits that are carried on the X chromosome:
Like colorblindness, hemophilia is a recessive sex-link trait and
is designated in combination with sex chromosomes:
XH – X chromosome with normal clotting blood (dominant)
COLORBLINDNESS
What is the sex and phenotype for colorblindness for each of
the following genotypes:
Sex
XCXC
XCXc
Vision
Xh – X chromosome with hemophilia (recessive)
Y – Y chromosomes do not contain the genes for hemophilia
What genotypes would produce hemophilia in these genders?
Male:
Female:
XcXc
XCY
XcY
Tortoiseshell fur color
is a sex-linked trait and
is seen more often in
male cats.
