1. A man with hemophilia (a recessive, sex-linked blood clotting disorder) has a daughter of normal phenotype. She marries a man who is normal for the trait. XH-normal. Xh-hemophilia. Since this is a recessive disorder, one XH allele will give a normal phenotype. When the offspring do not have a XH and only have the Xh allele/alleles they will have the hemophilia condition. Man's genotype is XhY. Daughter's genotype is XHXh (She got the Xh from her father.
Sex Linked Genes. A particularly important category of genetic linkage has to do with the X and Y sex chromosomes. These not only carry the genes that determine male and female traits but also those for some other characteristics as well. Genes that are carried by either sex chromosome are said to be sex linked. Men normally have an X and a Y combination of sex chromosomes, while women have two X's. Since only men inherit Y chromosomes, they are the only ones to inherit Y-linked traits.
