11:15 Sex Limited traits overview
Not all traits are controlled by alleles found in autosomes. There are traits governed by the sex chromosomes.
These traits are called sex-linked traits.
Sex-linked traits are recessive These are traits that are found on either one of the sex chromosomes.
Sex-linked traits affect both males and females. But in some cases, one particular sex is more prone to have a sex-linked trait.
A sex-linked trait is a trait genetically determined by an allele located on the sex chromosome. A trait that is determined by the allele on the X chromosome is particularly described as X-linked whereas that trait determined by the allele on the Y chromosome is said to be Y-linked.
SEX-INFLUENCED TRAITS
- are autosomal traits that are influenced by sex hormones
- It is also a recessive trait
One of the examples of SEX-INFLUENCED TRAITS is baldness and it is influenced by the hormone testosterone.
And since males have a higher level of testosterone compared to females If a male has one recessive allele, he will show that trait, but it will take two recessives for the female to show that same trait.
Sex-limited traits are those traits limited to only one sex. Lactation is a good example of a sex-limited trait that is exclusively among females.

Thank you po, ma'am! ❤❤❤

Thank you for your appreciation

Asan po yung link ng part 3 ? 😊

Hi po, ano po answer nito mam? Salamat po.A bald female married a man who doesn't have any traits of baldness. What will be the genotype and phenotypes of the offspring? How many percent of their offspring will be bald?

[@MaamMica]

You can use the punnet square to get the answer 😊❤️

[@MaamMica]

Keep in mind that for a female to get bald both sex chromosomes must be bald

[@cristyorcullo7106]

Hello po, bali po ano po ba ang symbol na gagamitin pag no traits of baldness si male po?

[@MaamMica]

Both capital B 😊
