Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autosomal-dominant conditions require only one copy of the disease-causing allele for the condition to be inherited and expressed in the phenotype. This means that if a parent has the condition, there is a 50% chance of passing it on to their offspring, regardless of the child's sex, because the genes involved are located on one of the autosomes (non-sex chromosomes) and not on the sex chromosomes.
