Type the correct answer in the box. spell the word correctly. how do x linked diseases affect females? in case of x linked diseases, the x chromosome bears the disease mutation. females have xx chromosomes and males have xy chromosomes. in females, along with the x chromosome with genetic mutation a healthy x chromosome is also present. therefore, we see females are of the disease.

The correct answer would be carriers of the disease.

Explanation:

It is already explained in question that in X linked or sex-linked diseases, the X chromosome carries the mutation. We already know that females carry two copies XX of the X chromosome while males carry one copy of the X chromosome and one copy of the Y chromosome.

If a male has affected the X chromosome with the Y chromosome it will express the disease however, with normal X chromosome he will be unaffected. While females have two copies of the X chromosome so if along with mutated X chromosome a healthy X chromosome is also present, she will be a carrier of the disease.

Thus, The correct answer would be carriers of the disease.

x would be the most and the least would be y because there are more fruit   and seeds than flock z has insects
