Detailed explanation-1: -And in humans this is the X or the Y chromosomes. And so some of the more familiar sex-linked traits are hemophilia, red-green color blindness, congenital night blindness, some high blood pressure genes, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and also Fragile X syndrome.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sex-linked traits are determined by genes located on the sex chromosomes. Sex-limited traits are determined by genes located on autosomes and express only in one sex.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sex linked describes the sex-specific patterns of inheritance and presentation when a gene mutation (allele) is present on a sex chromosome (allosome) rather than a non-sex chromosome (autosome). In humans, these are termed X-linked recessive, X-linked dominant and Y-linked.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sex linkage applies to genes that are located on the sex chromosomes. These genes are considered sex-linked because their expression and inheritance patterns differ between males and females.
