Question 2

Why are males more likely to have X-linked inherited disorders?
◦ If the X chromosome contains the recessive gene for the disorder, their Y chromosome has no dominant gene to prevent it.

◦ Androgen is a hormone that causes disorders to occur.
◦ If the Y chromosome does not develop properly, the genes on this chromosome cannot prevent the disorder from occurring.
