Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sex-linked inheritance can lead to the expression of a recessive allele when only one copy is present, particularly in males who have only one X chromosome. If a recessive allele is located on the X chromosome, males (XY) will express the trait because they lack a second X chromosome that could carry a dominant allele.
