In the simplest form of FEC, each character is sent twice. The receiver checks both instances of each character for adherence to the protocol being used. If conformity occurs in both instances, the character is accepted. If conformity occurs in one instance and not in the other, the character that conforms to protocol is accepted.
Genes that are found on the sex chromosomes are called sex-linked genes. These genes can be on the X chromosome or on the Y chromosome. If a gene is located on the Y chromosome, it is a Y-linked gene. These genes are only inherited by males because, in most instances, males have a genotype of (XY). Females do not have the Y sex chromosome. Genes that are found on the X chromosome are called X-linked genes. These genes can be inherited by both males and females.
Why do sex-linked traits follow from different patterns of inheritance than other traits? Sexlinked traits follow a different pattern of inheritance than a non-sex linked trait because of the size difference between the X and y chromosomes. Think about non-sex câ¦hormosomes as being the same size, each having the exact same number of genes in the same postions (loci).
