RagingBull Posted October 26, 2003 Posted October 26, 2003 are there any physical features or phenotypes that are sex linked phenotypes in humans? I think i read somewhere that Red-Green Colorblindness is Sex Linked.. Are there any other Sex Linked Traits in Humans (Not Desieses or medical conditions). ?? Thx in advance for any information.
fafalone Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 pattern baldness is the only other one that comes to mind.
iglak Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 what about male-patterned baldness? linked to the Y chromosome... possibly
fafalone Posted October 27, 2003 Posted October 27, 2003 It's X-linked, just like red/green color blindness.
daisy Posted November 1, 2003 Posted November 1, 2003 Sometime, somewhere I seem to remember reading about a "hairy eared" condition that was sex-linked (i.e. it only showed up in males) in a particular tribe....try a google search.
