Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The X linked disorder means that the genes causing the disorder or disease is present on the X chromosomes. The X linked disorder can be dominant or recessive. If the father carries the affected X chromosome, it will pass the affected chromosomes to all daughters not to son. If the mother carries the affected X chromosomes, it will pass the affected chromosomes to all the progeny.
