If a male affected by a recessive sex linked trait reproduces with a female who is homozygous wild type for that trait what is the chance that any of their offspring will have the trait 0 25 50
Can human males be carriers for X linked traits Yes because both males and females can express recessive traits Yes because the Y chromosome can carry the recessive allele No because males only have one copy of the X chromosome No because males don t have sex chromosomes

In cats black fur color is caused by an X linked allele the other allele at this locus causes orange color The heterozygote is tortoiseshell What kinds of offspring would you expect from the cros of a black female and an orange male tortoiseshell females black males black females orange males tortoiseshell females tortoiseshell males Ogrange females black males

0 5 pt You are working as a cytologist scientists who study cells and cell abnormalities and you are given some cells from a male patient You note that these cells all have a single Barr body You do further analysis and see that all cells also have a Y chromosome Which of the following must be true of this male patient The patient is XXY The patient is phenotypically female The patient should produce sperm with the normal chrorosome complement The patient will have hemophilia
