FrankCastle Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Hello guys I'm really struggling with the question of whether or not a man get sick if he inherits a recessive X chromosome? On one hand I'm thinking that, yes he will get sick as he has no other alternative X chromosome to cover for the "faulty" one he has received and therefor he will become i'll. On the other hand I'm thinking that there has to be men who is carrying a recessive X chromosome that are not sick. How does it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endy0816 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Works out pretty much as exactly you said. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_recessive_inheritance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
