Why are sex-linked conditions more common in men than in women?
| Women simply do not develop the disease regardless of their genetic composition. | |
| Men need to inherit only one copy of the recessive allele for the condition to be fully expressed. | |
| The sex chromosomes are more active in men than in women. | |
| Men acquire two copies of the defective gene during fertilization. | |
| Men have more linked genes. |
Homework Answers
men's are XY and females are XX so a for a female to be affected with the disease both her X chromosomes should have mutated allele but for a man to be affected he just has to carry one mutated allele in his X chromosome so the answer is Men need to inherit only one copy of the recessive allele for the condition to be fully expressed

1. A) Explain what is sex linkage, and B) Apply the concept of sex linkage to explain why color blindness is more prevalent in men than in women. A boy who is colorblind, which parent did he inherit this gene from? Explain. 2. In plants long pollen gain is dominant to short grain and purple flower color is dominant to white color. You are mating two plants. One is homozygous recessive for both traits, flower color and pollen grain. The...

According to Robert Trivers, why are men generally larger and more physically aggressive than women? Because women are more reproductively “valuable” than men, hence competition for mates is fiercer among men Because men invest more heavily in reproduction than women Because men secrete more testosterone Trivers’ theory does not speculate on the origin of the sex difference in size and physical aggression Although some women are interested in casual sex (short-term mating), research has suggested that there are differences in...

The following statements apply to concepts and material discussed in Chapter 15; identify which statement is TRUE. Answers: A common ancestor of two species on evolutionary trees can be found at the point where the two branches meet. Humans evolved from Neanderthals about 50,000 years ago. Mitochondrial DNA is not particularly useful when trying to determine the movement pattern of humans historically across the globe. Scientists can estimate when species diverged from a common ancestor by comparing their Karyotypes. We...
