Answer from: Quest

an individual’s sex (i.e., whether they are a male or female) is determined by the sex chromosomes. most people have two sex chromosomes, one that is inherited from their mother and one that is inherited from their father. typically, females have two x chromosomes (xx) and males have one x chromosome and one y chromosome (xy). conditions caused by changes (“mutations”) in genes located on the x chromosome are considered x-linked.

x-linked recessive inheritance

most x-linked conditions are recessive. this means that in a person with two x chromosomes (most females), both copies of a gene (i.e., one on each x chromosome) must have a change or mutation whereas in a person with one x chromosome (most males), only one copy of a gene must have a mutation. a female with a mutation in one copy of a gene on the x chromosome is said to be a “carrier” for an x-linked condition. a male with a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome is typically affected with the condition. because females have two copies of the x chromosome and males have only one x chromosome, x-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females. however, x-linked recessive diseases can occur in both males and females.

for x-linked recessive disorders, an unaffected carrier mother who has a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome can transmit either the x chromosome with this mutation or a “normal” x chromosome to her children. if the father is unaffected, none of her daughters will be affected and all of her daughters will be unaffected—since they will inherit at least one normal x chromosome from their father. however, each daughter will have a 50% chance of being an unaffected carrier like her mother and a 50% chance of both x chromosomes being normal.

Familial down syndrome is similar to primary down syndrome in that it is caused by trisomy 21. however, in familial down syndrome, all or part of the third copy of chromosome 21 has translocated onto another autosome, typically chromosome 14. in cases of familial down syndrome, one of the parents of the affected child is often a carrier of a translocated chromosome. the translocation carrier parent does not have down syndrome because he or she has a total of two copies of chromosome 21. suppose that a woman is a translocation carrier of chromosome 21 on chromosome 14. she conceives six zygotes with a normal man who carries no aneuploidies. match the description of the chromosomes inherited by each zygote with the viability of the zygote.i. viable normal, or translocation carrierii. viable, with down syndromeiii. inviablea. two normal copies of 21, two normal copies of 14b. one 21 to 14 translocation, two normal copies of 21, one normal copy of 14c. one normal copy of 21, two normal copies of 14d. one normal copy of 14, one normal copy of 21, one 21 to 14 translocatione. one normal copy of 14, two normal copies of 21f. two normal copies of 14, one normal copy of 21, one 21 to 14 translocation
