How are sex-linked traits inherited? Alleles are passed from the parentsâ sex chromosomes to nonsex chromosomes in the offspring. Alleles are passed from the parentsâ nonsex chromosomes to the sex.
Unlike the paired autosomes, in which each member normally carries alleles (forms) of the same genes, the paired sex chromosomes do not carry an identical complement of genetic information. The X chromosome, being larger, carries many more genes than does the Y. Traits controlled by genes found only on the X chromosome are said to be sex-linked (see linkage group). Recessive sex-linked traits, such as hemophilia and redâgreen colour blindness, occur far more frequently in men than in women.
