Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In X-linked recessive disorders, all daughters of affected fathers are carriers because they inherit the affected X chromosome from their father. Boys and girls are not equally affected, as males are more likely to express the disorder. The son of a carrier mother has a 50% chance of being affected, not 25%. Affected fathers cannot transmit the gene to their sons, as sons inherit the Y chromosome from their fathers.
