Sex linkage is the phenotypic expression of an allele that is related to the chromosomal sex of the individual. This mode of inheritance is in contrast to the inheritance of traits on autosomal chrom...

Question sex-linked recessive traits are expressed in all males but not necessarily in all females. Why is this? Answer; Hi Brett; The Y chromosome in males does not carry genes so if a recessive trait occurs on the X chromosome it is expressed since it does not have a dominant gene to counteract it.

Men normally have an X and a Y combination of sex chromosomes, while women have two X's. Since only men inherit Y chromosomes, they are the only ones to inherit Y-linked traits. Men and women can get the X-linked ones since both inherit X chromosomes.

This model was originally inferred from the occurrence of few Y-linked genetic traits, pairing of the X and Y chromosomes during male meiosis and, more recently, the existence of X-Y homologous genes. Paper-1371571.

Another oddity about the inheritance of X linked traits is that baby boys always inherit their X linked traits from their mothers. Since a male baby gets his Y chromosome from his father, he must get his X ... Y linked traits are the easiest of traits to understand. It's just too bad that there aren't more of them.
