The answer would be B.
Males are XY(have one X chromosome) so when it comes to x linked diseases they express everythinggg that is on that chromosome(they only need one copy). But females need 2 copies of the recessive allele in order to express it.

Hemophilia is a genetic blood disorder. The female parent must carry one copy of the gene for the child to inherit hemophilia. Also, males have a greater probability of getting hemophilia than females.

Based on your understanding of sex linkage, describe in detail why most hemophiliacs are male. Can females have hemophilia? Describe how they could inherit this disorder. Can males be carriers for hemophilia?
