law of segregation
Since males can never be homo, or heterozygous for x linked traits, what do we call them when referring to allele status.
hemizygous
Hemophilia is an x-linked recessive disease. Can a female with two normal parents become a hemophiliac?

In pigeons, ruffled feathers are dominant over smoothe feathers. A ruffled pigeon whose mother and sister were smooth, is crossed with a ruffled pigeon. The first chick has smooth feathers. What is the genotype of the chick's grandfather on his mother's side?
Rr
A cleft chin is due to the dominant allele D, while d produces no cleft. Free ear lobes is controlled by the allele E, while attched ear lobes is controlled by e. What is the probablility that the following cross will produce an offspring with a cleft chin and free ear lobes?

true
Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes. If a brown-eyed man marries a blue-eyed woman, and they have ten children who all have brown eyes, can you be certain of the father's genotype?
No, but the odds are good.
