Can a female have an X-linked disorder?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While X-linked disorders typically affect males more frequently due to their hemizygous state (only one X chromosome), females can also be affected. However, it is less common for females to be affected because they have two X chromosomes and typically need to inherit two copies of the mutation to display the disorder. Alternatively, females can be carriers of X-linked disorders and pass the mutation on to their offspring. Therefore, it infrequently occurs that a female has an X-linked disorder.
