Question 1

Who is more affected by X-linked inherited disorders?
◦ females
◦ males
◦ children under one year of age
◦ adults with mutations

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.
◦ They are generally more immature at birth.
◦ 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.
