Document Summary

10. 2 sex-linked genes: sex-linked genes: gene located on a sex chromosome. Inherited differently in males and females: autosomes: chromosomes other than a sex chromosomes. 10. 2a females are xx and males are xy in both humans and fruit files: x chromosome: sex chromosomes that occurs paired in female cells and single in male cells, females have xx. If sperm carries x chromosome: males have xy. Inherited these genes but they are not expressed. 10. 2c sex-linked genes show a different pattern of inheritance from autosomal genes: sex-linkage: the gene carried on sex chromosomes can be inherited in a distinctly non- Mendelian pattern: morgan discovered sex linked genes from flies, crossed a white-eyed male with a with a true breeding female with red eyes, all f1 files has red eyes, white-eye trait was recessive. 10. 2d inactivation of one x chromosome evens out gene effects in mammalian females.
