Question

A hereditary disease which is seldom passed from father to son is

• A. Autosomal linked disease
• B. X-chromosomal linked disease
• C. Y-chromosomal linked disease
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B X-chromosomal linked disease

For a male offspring (son) to happen, fertilization of Y chromosome( from a male) should occur with X chromosome (from female). Hence, X-chromosomal linked disease will not be passed from father to the male offspring.

So, the correct answer is 'X-chromosomal linked disease'.
