Fragile X syndrome(F), on the other hand, is an X-linked dominant mutation characterized by a mild to moderateintellectual disability. Amelogenesis imperfecta (A) is a congenital disorder affecting the formation ofthe teeth enamel making affected individuals at higher risk for dental cavities and related problems.Only male offspring inherit this condition. Jane is heterozygous for both X-linked traits like her mother. Her father is normal for both X-linked traits. James has a mother who suffers from G6PDD but not from fragile X-syndrome. His fatherdoes not exhibit any X-linked disorder but has amelogenesis imperfecta. A.
