prime purpose of this lecture is to present on Inheritance: Sex Linkage. Here briefly present on what is Sex Linkage. In addition to their role in determining sex, the sex chromosomes have genes for many characters. Genes located on a sex chromosome are called sex linked genes. In humans the term usually refers to X-linked characters: genes located only on X chromosomes. Fathers can pass X-linked alleles to their daughters, but not sons. Mothers can pass sex-linked alleles to both sons and daughters.
