X-linked+traits

X-linked Traits: Traits that travel along the X chromosome in an organism. X linked reccessive traits are much more common in males because males would only need to recieve one allele for the trait in order to have it becuaes they only would recieve one allele for the trait as males have one Y chromosome and then only one X chromosome.

Ex: Hemophelia has a gene that travels on the X chromosome and is therefore a X-linked trait
