Sex-Linked Traits Use Pgs. 200-214 NAME: _____________________________________ 1.) What are sex-linked genes? What are the X chromosome genes responsible for? What are the Y chromosomes genes responsible for? EXPLAIN 2.) What does it mean if a person is a “carrier” of a disease? EXPLAIN 3.) Sex-linked traits (etc. colorblindness, male baldness, etc.) are inherited on what sex chromosome? EXPLAIN how this works. 4.) How would a male inherit the gene for colorblindness? EXPLAIN 5.) How could a female be colorblind? EXPLAIN 6.) Who is more likely to display a colorblind trait, a male or a female? Why? 7.) What is a pedigree chart used for? EXPLAIN. 8.) What differences do you notice on a pedigree chart when you are tracing autosomal genes compared to when you are tracing sex-linked genes? EXPLAIN
