“coffee with milk” spots and benign tumors?
47) Their children may have the disorder, or they also
may be carriers. When they are carriers, they are

5. Child becomes paralyzed
Phenylketonuria (PKU)
Neurofibromatosis
Incompletely dominant traits
Sickle-Cell Disease
Sex-Linked Traits
Those that are on either the X or Y chromosome.
X-linked (females are carriers, males get the disorder)
Y-linked (males are the carriers and get the disorder)
Traits that are on the X chromosome, so males are
more likely to have the disorder. Females have two X
Chromosomes, so they might have a good gene on
their other X chromosome. Usually the mother is a
silent carrier and passes the defective gene to the male
children.
Color blindness
Muscular Dystrophy
Haemophilia
Male pattern baldness
Males
One sex or the other is more likely to have the
condition.
In females, and index finger longer than the fourth
finger (ring finger) is dominant. In males, and index
finger longer than the fourth finger
